To make your yarn go farther, you could try cabling less often, say every 6th row, and/or using more knit stitches between the cables by working k2 when you roll 5 and 6 instead of ignoring these rolls (assuming you're using the dice method). This would change the gauge and mean more calculating, but I'm sure you're up to it!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the vote of confidence.Fran / Blue Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18293627981248346055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8983386.post-1133900454059245092005-12-06T14:20:00.000-06:002005-12-06T14:20:00.000-06:00How about a slogan that says...I cheated on my tes...How about a slogan that says...<BR/><BR/>I cheated on my test to get into MENSA.
