Red Heart Super Saver in lilac
size 7 circular knitting needles1 Set size 7 double pointed knitting needles 

1 Rd marker

1 cable needle

39 markers, of which 7 are red ones.

Notes: slip markers as you come to them.  I used red markers after every 20 stitches, because it's easier to see where the pattern repeats start and end.  The pattern is a 20 stitch repeat.

With a long tail, cast on 100, join, being careful not to twist the stitches.
