Cataract Cables
Cataracts in nature are stunning descending waterfalls; they begin as a gentle trickle, swelling to unleash their forceful beauty. As the water cascades, it spills and seeps through rocks and crevices, creating a breathtaking display of nature's artistry. This vivid imagery inspired the creation of the *Cataract Cables* knitting pattern, designed to reflect the dynamic flow and beauty of waterfalls.
