in the midst of the organized lines of ribbing,

the cables took to winding paths.

they went the scenic route, the long way home.

that’s often the best trip,  no?

and speaking of taking a tangent of a road,

what’s crazy is that to get this one pretty shot of the cable spread nicely

(unblocked since i want to frog and reuse the yarn for the final piece),

my 14 yr old had to play an impromptu game of twister.

sprawled out

under the chair

where i was sitting

with her hands

exactly right

so as not to show

in the shot.

phew.

in the end, mission accomplished

as we captured the essence of

both the yarn and the stitches, which was what i wanted

all along.

thanks so much for the help, baby girl!

i owe you one.
