Queen of Cables: Kate







Our Kate has many talents---I mean her first nickname was Project a Day Kate. This was replaced by Speedy Needle Freeman and in the last few weeks I have been dubbing her the Queen of Cables. And the reason is___________oh you are so smart to have guessed it already.

In December the queen created her own pattern and called it the Hella Cable Scarf. (There are many people in the immediate BAy Area who received a Hella as a Christmas gift---it was so showy fun and fast to knit). Last Friday for our Magical Mystery Knitting Party she created a Java Jacket using_____you have got it. But the thing is that she spent ages playing around with cables to see which would look good sideways---the way a cup wears it. And she concluded that the honeycomb cable was best---and the Magical Mystery goers agreed. (Rumor has it that they have become hooked on cables themselves)

So with all this cabling in the air I remembered that , the knit-one-one crochet expert
Susan, had requested a cable class---a long time ago, mind you--- (Sorry Susan!). Therefore it seemed so apt to create a
Cable Mania class and to let the queen just go wild teaching all she has learned about cables. Now I have to admit that I myself am a big fan of cables---they are so showy, so mysterious and just plain fun. And fun is a good thing people!
