Ok now that my yarn is here and Denise has sent me my new cords I am ready to start my sweater I am using knitting pure and simple pattern #9724 But I am changing the cuffs to ribbing and the neck to a turtle neck (I think or maybe a crew neck) I was also going to put a cable down the middle but is one cable enough?

That looks really nice. Is it soft? It sure looks that way. What blend is it?

Oh, how yummy!! Love the color and I love andean silk!!
I think one staghorn cable would look nice...simple, but elegant...u can see a staghorn here, but it's used more than once here. :D
