Would knitting this in black yarn be a mistake?
I really really want a long hooded black cardigan with a voluminous hood and the Galgalad pattern caught my eye. However, because I want to knit it in solid black, I’m concerned that the beautiful detailing will be wasted on black yarn. I’ve never knit anything textured with black before but I’ve heard that black isn’t suited for cables and such because it doesn’t show details. Should I look for a different pattern?
