Yarn and Cables

I finally took some photos of the yarn I got for the Revised Arwen and also of the cable progress. I am at about 10" on the back and will start the armhole shaping around 13" so we are getting there.

Like I said before this pattern is so much fun and cabling without a cable needle is the way to go. It makes it so much faster and easier plus it is one less needle to carry around.

Here is the Arwen yarn.
Arwen YarnNow I worked really hard to get the color of this yarn as close to right as I can on my monitor. I have to say when it showed up I was shocked as the picture on the Beaverslide website looks nothing like the yarn I have at my house. I mean they are both blueish but I really think the similarity ends there. I really do love the color that arrived as I seconded guessed myself after I pushed the submit order button that the yarn was going to be too dull. Sometimes things just work out in the end.

The Arwen looks beautiful and I like the blue.
