Miscrossed cables

Last night at Stitch and Bitch, there was Vogue Knitting magazine on the table. I thought it must be the new spring issue. As the night progressed KS (owner of magazine) said something about not noticing the mistake for 5 years even though it is right there. She motioned to the magazine. I looked closer it is the Spring/Summer 2002 issue. Look at the left boob.


How many people did that photo get by with that mismatched cable on the front. If it was noticed during the photo shoot they would have put a brooch or positioned her arms differently over the mistake.
Just thought I would share since I know some people have had problems with mismatched cables lately. I think this puts it in perspective how they sometimes are not visible. The only reason KS noticed the mistake as she was told about it.

Wowsa. That makes me even happier to have forged ahead, despite my very small error (especially in comparison). Wow. Who was the copy editor on that? The knitter? Yipes.

Am I crazy? I can't see the mistake. Both boobs the cables look great...

you know, it never fails. I stared at that picture and her chest for a good 5 to 10 min. Yet the second I posted that I couldn't see the mistake. BAM there it was.
