I'm just learning how to knit. For the past three Saturdays I've taken a class in making cables. Who knew it would be so simple? Our teacher was great! This is the scarf I made, out of a lovely merino/silk blend. So soft. I still need to block the scarf, then it will be ready for a Christmas gift. I just love the colour.

It doesn't look simple to me at all. I learned to knit as a little girl but never got past knit and purl. The scarf is a lovely pattern and color!
