Meow! ... pant, pant, pant ...
I LOVE that blanket. Love it! My first thought was "if my brother ever gets married, that will be his wedding gift." Then I thought, "hell, I could make that for myself!" I've been ogling the Great American Aran Afghan for a long time, especially because I have the privilege of fondling Alison's squares in person. Even though it feels like blasphemy, I think I like the Cables Untangled blanket better. We're talking serious lust here. I need this book. Bad.

Aaaaahhhh!!!! Damn...cable lust doesn't even begin to describe it...wonder if they have it at the library yet???
i'm going to have to take a look at that book. i'm a big fan of cables and would wear nothing but cable sweaters if i weren't so fat.
hell i'll wear them anyway ;)
Purrrrrrr! Helllloooooo cable-y goodness, come to mama!
Wow, is that awesome! I've been fighting the blanket urge for a while now, but that... ooof. I think I may finally succumb, because that thing is just amazing!
I thought the same thing when I saw that book! Well, okay I don't have a brother, so I wasn't thinking quite the exact same thing, but close enough. I have to make it.
*Wimper*
I'm with you, honey. Blankets should look smashing from across the room, as well as close up.

Go to Knitpicks and you can "view inside pages". Unfortunately, I didn't see anything as spectacular as that afghan. There's one sweater that looks tempting (to me)--it's the brownish one on the 3rd page of photos. But everything else I could take or leave. I wonder how many more projects there are, besides the ones pictured? And I would have loved to see some pictures from the cable dictionary, not just of projects. Ah well, it'll be out soon and we can all leaf through it then.
