  1. Thankyou for the cable tutorial. I have always been afraid to try as looked so intimidating. Running off to have a go now xx

  2. Hi, if are gauge isn’t long enough and we want to add stitches, is there a multiple we should use to get the same effect? I’m trying this with another yarn but it doesn’t seem to be long enough. Thanks!
