Another New Swatch

I finished another swatch last night.  This one was a cable swatch.  I still have two other cable swatches to work on.  Cabling is not one of my favoritist knitterly things to do.  To put it plainly, knitting cables just plain sucks....at least for me it does.  Maybe I need to learn to knit without cable needles or maybe I need to find the right cable needle...."The One"!  Wonder if it's kinda like finding your soul mate.....you here birds sings, fireworks are going off in the sky and the world is right just for those precious moments.  I swear I haven't been nipping at the whiskey bottle....I don't even like whiskey!  Of course "I do love me rum" **says in a piratey type voice**....haven't had any in months and months and months.....darn babies and nursing.  Oh Boy, I can't wait till Bree is weaned....then I can have me rum.  Ok now I'm making myself sound like a lush.....lol.  You never want something badly till you can't have it at all.  :~)
Anyway, back to knitting content: You can see the new swatch here.

New Swatch

Here's the swatch I finished up last night.  It's the baby cable ribbing which I've also seen in Sensational Knitted Socks.  It's a super cute pattern and I think I may use this one for socks for Kaity.  It think that would be super cute.

Back of Escalator Swatch

For anyone interested, here's what the back of the Escalator Pattern swatch looks like.  Sorry for the crap photo....no natural light at the moment since the sun went down.  :~)

Ain't It Purdy?

Here's the latest in my never ending adventure into swatching for The Walker Treasury Project. 

I've already posted it out to the WTP blog.   This pattern was fun to knit but with 24 rows in a pattern repeat you have to pay attention to the row you are working on.

Well I'm off to get the kiddos in bed so I can have some quiet time.  :~)
