So I sat my happy ass down last night and did some cable swatching. So I ran 3 plys of Navy Merino Wool through the machine at tension dial #6. Looks pretty rad! The first couple cables look a bit bucked up but then I figured it out on the last 3 passes. In addition to using tension #6, I also used the switch on the ribber that makes "softer" purl stitches. The swatch is incredibly soft and lofty. I CANNOT wait to knit this sweater-vest and rock it on the daily! John Dillinger ain't got shit on me!
