Sign ups are being done in the test thread linked above. Please respond to the first post of that thread. I will let respondents know asap if they’re accepted.
Materials
- 325yds/298 m of worsted weight yarn (sample was knit using Knit Picks Wool of the Andes), preferably wool or a wool blend
- 4.5 mm/US 7 needles to knit in the round, or size needed to obtain gauge
- locking st marker(s): 1 for beginning of rnd and 3 others to mark chart repeats if you desire them
- cable needle
- tapestry needle (for weaving in ends)
Gauge
in K2,P2 ribbing, unstretched, 30 sts and 24 rnds = 4”/10cm
blocked: 17 sts (1 repeat of the pattern) = 2.25”/5.5 cm & 20 rnds (5 repeats of the pattern) = 3”/7.5 cm
Skills needed for this pattern
- comfortable knitting in the round in your preferred way
- familiarity with knitting cables
This pattern includes both written and charted instructions.
This pattern has been tech edited prior to testing.
Expectations
I love to hear from my testers. This can be as simple as letting me know what row you’ve gotten to, or posting a current picture in the thread. Once every week is enough but don’t feel you’re limited to that. I encourage chatter.
I require a project page including the yarn and needles used, the final yardage used, and a completed photo. I also ask that you link your project to the pattern page as well; I will message you the test link code to copy and paste into the Pattern Name field.
If you’re in the habit of including more on your project pages (in progress photos, comments about the pattern/recipient/colorway chosen/yarn behavior), please do so.
