Why You'll Love It
- Double-cable detail gives this little scarf plenty of personality.
- Worked from one point to the other, with garter-stitch shaping and an i-cord edge.
- Two sizes: approximately 120 cm or 145 cm long.
- Uses approximately 100–130 m of DK / 8ply yarn, depending on size.
- Includes guidance for trying finer yarns.
A lovely little project for those days when you fancy cables without committing to a whole jumper. The garter-stitch shaping creates the triangular scarf, while the i-cord edge gives it a neat finish. Choose the shorter version for a little neck scarf, or the longer size for extra length to wrap and tie.
Sizes and Yarn Requirements
| Size | Approximate finished length | Approximate yarn required |
|---|---|---|
| Small | 120 cm | 100 m |
| Large | 145 cm | 130 m |
Needles and Tension
The sample is knitted in DK / 8ply yarn on 4.5 mm needles. Tension is 18 stitches per 10 cm in garter stitch; row tension is not critical. You'll also need a cable needle and a tapestry needle for finishing.
Using Finer Yarn
You can also knit this scarf in finer yarns. As a guide, try 3.25 mm needles for 4ply or 3.5 mm needles for 5ply. For finer yarns, the designer recommends knitting the Large size to give you a little more length.
