I started making a long cardigan, it has a mock-cable pattern. I've made one before:

and I liked it so much I decided to make another one. The one above is in a color called "oatmeal."

Lovely cardigan!
I was on a sweater binge for the past couple of years, now I'm back on socks.
Love this stuff.

They always come out different.

I still wear them, but one came out kind of HUGE, LOL. I kept at it and they now look better. I'm not patient enough to make the color pattern ones. I have found that I detest color work, seems to take the fun out of knitting for me.

I like the way the seed stitch compliments mock-cables.
