When I said my knitting mojo returned…I meant it. In addition to working on the Origami Wrap cardigan, I also decided to cast on a new project as backup, in the event that I run out of yarn. Since ArtFibers is only open on weekends, and is now in Pinnole, getting more yarn isn’t quite as easy as I’d like.

So I cast on for the Bulky Cabled Cardigan from Glampyre. I’ve had this yarn and pattern for a long time, and I’m really excited to finally get started. It’s a quick knit, and I think it will be really cute!

The cables look nice, so far. I had trouble with gauge at first. I got gauge on US13s, but I didn’t like the look of the fabric. So I switched to US11s, and I’m making the medium size rather than the small. I hope that’s enough to compensate!

But my favorite thing about this sweater right now?

It’s not pink.
