I've finished the third sample in the Exploration in Cables class. Here's my sample:
What I learned:
1. An alternative cable cast-on
2. How to do a cable without a cable needle.
I also continued to practice tightening the first stitch between a knit and purl, tightening up the last stitch on a row, and reading a knitting chart.
Overall, I liked the cable cast-on. It was a nice stretchy cast-on and I can see use for it. However, i didn't really like doing a cable without a cable needle. It is nice to know how to do a cable without using a cable needle but I found it very tiring to do. It was far too easy for me to drop stitches. I might use this technique in the future but I'm not sure.
On to the next lesson.
Happy Stitching!
