This is my "sittin'-on-the-couch-watchin'-TV" project for the summer. If you are a fan of "Scandal", then you may have noticed the afghan on the back of Olivia Pope's couch. That's my inspiration. I started with a long tail cast on of 184 stitches on size 10.5 needles. I worked 4 rows of garter stitch. Then I began and ended every row with 4 knit stitches followed by a 4x1 rib. I am twisting every other welt every 6th row. If I were to do it again, I would have twisted every 12th row. I think the cables are a bit too close together and would look better if they were more subtle. This type of knitting is a great project to keep your fingers busy without taking too much of you brain power!
