Anything you can do I can do better!

Crochet gets a bad rap. In reality crocheters can do anything knitters can do, and most likely they can do it faster. I have wanted to cable for the longest time, I knew it was possible, I just didn't know how. Three words: Front Post Stitch!



What better way is there to practice a new skill then to make a scarf? I found this awesome pattern in Crochet Today December 2006 issue.
