Braided Cable Scarf

Winter has come to Minnesota.
We received 6 inches of snow on Monday and we are in the 20's for the next 2 weeks for sure.
That means we need to break out all the winter gear, including the scarves, or maybe especially the scarves.

I like knitting with chunky yarns.
Your project comes together so much quicker.
And as one of my teenage daughters said, "Chunky is in."
Thank you, I'll take that as a compliment.








CO 28 stitches with size US 13 needles.
RS: K1, p1, K1, p2 then follow the 18 stitches on the chart as row number indicates (even rows 1-12), p2, k1, p1, k1.
On every WS (odd row) pattern is as follows: K1, p1, k3, p18, k3, p1, k1.

Details:
  • Finished dimensions: 6 1/2 inches wide by 68 inches long. (Don't forget to block the scarf)
  • 2 skeins Lion Brand Wool-Ease Chunky in Pumpkin (bought on clearance somewhere).
  • Pattern inspiration found here.  The pattern is in Russian but there is a chart to use also.
  • Knitted 20 repeats for the infinity scarf.
  • Size 13 needles
