My “preview of coming attractions” from last week’s post is the start of Saven, a design by Meghan Babin.
The pattern has you knit the sleeves first, so I did just that.
You may or may not have noticed immediately that one sleeve has several mis-crossed cables. (Or is the photo too small?) I only noticed them when I was beyond that point and did not feel it necessary to go back and correct. I posted a photo of that sleeve on Instagram because I was curious: would people notice the errors immediately or not? The answer is: some did, some did not, some noticed after scrutinizing the photo for a bit.
The sleeve on the left has all cables properly crossed. But honesty compels me to admit that I mis-crossed two cables. For some reason that is a real mental block for me. I don’t follow the chart because the pattern is pretty easy, and I get in a zone and don’t pay attention.
I did not, however, rip back. I duplicate-stitched over the two mis-crossed cables.
In other news, Loki is still enjoying retirement!
What a beautiful cozy lap blanket you have…
Looks good to me! No one is going to look that closely😊

I never would have noticed the difference on the sleeves! Gorgeous pic of that kitty!
