Pretty in Cabled 8 Pink!
Yay, I finished it! My first finished garment! I SO ROCK! Ok, ok...so it wasn't so difficult, but I did learn two new skills: cabling and crochet! Yup, crochet! Thanks to my LYS, I learned to single crochet today. Geez, it's freaking easy! And guess what, the seams are single crocheted together so no sewing! I am so thinking that I might have to use this technique to seam other stuff. Hell yeah! 
The pattern can be found in the Interweave Knits Spring 2005. I used Rowan All Seasons Cotton in Jaunty (doubled). If you'd like to see it completed on someone else, go to Diana's Blog or Lesley's Blog. Cute girls in cables, oh my!
Wow, this is such a pretty top! I saw it in Interweave but it looked just so-so, yours is really great and I love, love the colour! You look good in it.

Your Cable-8 looks superfantastic!! I wish I had picked such a vibrant color for mine.
Nice digs here at typepad! Your new site is great.

Oooh girl! It looks fabulous on you! The color goes really well with your skin tone, and is perfect for Spring! Way to go!

It looks great! I likes yours better than the one pictured in IK. I love your color. Yay for a finished garment! I'm really wanting to make this. If I didn't have so many other projects going, I'd be all over it. Perhaps later in the spring/summer?
