It’s time to stop war profiteering and return money back to Canadian families and communities. Take action: 350.org/canada/theyp...

#ShowMeYourKnits prompt: cables #Cascade there was a winter when I thought everyone could use an ear warmer. And for someone not really into cables: an heirloom wedding gift. Yes, they’re still
married. Probably because of the binding spells I knit into it. Details in the Alt text.

When you breakdown the pattern you really are only going to use two stitch markers for the decreases, the other two are superfluous, imo. Allow the extra six stitches to hang out there, divide the six stitches so there are three stitches on either side of the decrease markers. You should be okay?
