This was a labor of love. Knit, knit, knit, knit for my lovely sister-in-law and her new husband. I wanted to make a blanket large enough for the two of them to cuddle under on cold winter nights. Finished a few months late and still not in the mail but it's the thought, right? The photo above shows the color the best. This super wash merino from Knit Picks has a high snuggle factor and the first machine wash went well. The cable pattern was a 64 row repeat - too many rows to memorize but the rhythm was easy to get into. It kept the miles of knitting from being boring. Don't look too close, I am sure there are a few cables crossed the wrong way. Check out the Ravelry entry for more details.
