I really like that red, by the way.
Way too late for ribbing on the hem of this pair but I'll keep it in mind next time.

Yes, the cables are already framed by purling and I plan to carry some of the surrounding purl stitches into the "whited out" area. Also need to do a little bit of decreasing at the end of the cable area (only 5 stitches decrease).
