On the topic of cables, here are mine - not nearly as impressive as OP's cardigan.

Pattern is A very braidy cowl and yarn is Austermann Camel & Wool.

Hah, we WIP Wednesdayed at the same time! Oh well.

That's a lot still to go, but this panel looks fantastic. Such neat cabling. What's the pattern? Or is it one you're designing yourself?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The cabling was a bit of a fight. Six stitches per cable is about the limit of what I'm willing to do. I hope the tension evens out a bit in blocking.

Pattern is this here: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cottage-cocoon-cardigan

Oh wow, how incredibly cozy is that?! The sort of thing I would knit, absolutely live in, and completely wear out in one winter season lol

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Can't comment on its coziness, yet. Will report once it's finished.
But knock yourself out, there's still some winter left.
