I have had a few requests for this pattern so i will give it a shot. Requirements: you will need to know how to cable! NOTE!

For a while i was a reseller for Ice yarns, and all seemed to be going very well.. until a while ago where my client ordered some yarn DHL and it was shipped regular mail. the problem was, on the island she lives and to the address she wanted it received, she can only receive DHL.
