I started the Cabled Shrug from IK Fall 2005 over my Thanksgiving vacation. I picked it back up again. It’s really the only project I have going on right now. I think that this is the first time I’ve only had one project. Well, except for Klaralund, but I don’t really count that since the knitting part is finished.
Can you see the cables? Not so much with everything bunched onto a straight needle. Even though it’s taboo (supposedly) to switch needles mid-project, I think I’m going to switch it over to a circular needle for ease. It’s sucks trying to jam 100+ stitches onto a straight needle and it makes my fingers ache, sliding all those stitches around.

"The needle is mine!"
So, circulars it is. Gauge be damned.

Taboo, Schmaboo. I do it all the time. ๐
