Block #6- Cabled Column Calamity

Congratulations, ladies and gents! You made it through our most advanced block yet! I am so proud that you all didn't run into more problems and it seems that most of you coasted right through without a snag (pun intended!) I created this design, not only to satisfy the hunger of those who needed more challenging designs to work on, but to instill the confidence in those of you that thought you couldn't do it. Seems that the tutorials for Cables on the KK and Cables on the Kiss Looms that I put together to help you all was really worth it and now you have little (or big, depending on how you view 25 and 27 page tutorials) booklets to carry with you to help you with cables from now on. :)
I would say that this class has been the most rewarding one for me to teach, yet. :D And the only recurrent question/problem that came up was about those stretched out looking stitches, which was normally solved by pulling the slack out from behind and redistributing the slack to surrounding stitches. I have seen several pictures of some really gorgeous cables and I am so very proud. :D

Live, Love, Loom
