I turned off the flash so you could see better the contrast and the cabling. These are the cables that will run up both sides of the front of the Loppem sweater. It is tricky for me being the first time I've followed a chart on a sweater. But it's going pretty well as long as I go slowly and not get distracted. Definitely not an idle "non-thinking" project for me. Concentrating harder on this one. I'm sure I will get the hang of it. On decrease rows you have to SSK (Slip, Slip, Knit) and K2Tog a few times. All the while tracking your pattern. This is a gorgeous pattern though...Fall is here!
Enjoy the colors of Fall! And the sunlight while you can!

You're cabling! Yay, Loppem looks like a beautiful knit so far.
This is a beauty of a pattern! I am loving it!
Wow, these are beautiful pictures! And you are doing such complicated knitting!
Cabling ends up being more about following the chart exactly, which isn't so "hard" to do techically -at least this cable pattern-just requires so much of my concentration while learning...but it's fun to see it "work!"
