Now do cabling. No, not the server cabinet kind, the kind where you cross groups of knit stitches over each other to make 3-D columns from flat rows.

- samstave 2y agoPeak 1980s sweater design! (I recall one xmas very clearly, it was 1987) We I was 12, brothers 3 and 16. We lived in Tahoe - so to the Reno Mall for xmas shopping with dad... Dad give me and older brother $100 each to go buy gifts and take youngling along with him and me and brother split up. Mall's in Reno Nevada in the 1980s are a pretty soul crushing dystopian feel (Thus my love of the Fallout Games as I could relate to the squalor of Nevada/Reno/Vegas Casino Culture in the 1980s (YUCK) --- So Xmas Day Mom gets to open her gifts. 3 very similar boxes, all from Macy's. All three of us had bought Mom Sweaters. the knit sweaters with the braided 3D cabling and shoulder pads. (Think this vibe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aVxNH6iN9I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aVxNH6iN9I) --- ANYWAY... Thank you for introducing me to UnSpun! (I have an immediate product need that I have been looking for a manufacturer for for custom thing - and all my googling and even calling actual Sock Companies (Mr. Sock from LA) I couldnt find what I needed and basically my project went dormant - but I think I found what I need in UnSpun! F-YES. Pearl Right! (Every time I try to spin a yarn, knitting together a bunch of seamless pun threads - 'Man, I can!", I posit... "I'm afraid not!" And it all unravels, leaving my stomach in a ball when I wanted my audience in stitches)
