The Reversible Cable Scarf is a classic, richly textured scarf with cables that look beautiful from either side. The all-over cable pattern creates plenty of visual interest while keeping the design clean and wearable, making it an especially satisfying project for knitters who enjoy traditional texture.
Knit with two hanks of Loop Flora, our soft 100% superwash merino worsted-weight yarn, this scarf has excellent stitch definition that shows off every cable. The finished scarf measures approximately 6" wide by 60" long, though the pattern can easily be worked longer or shorter to suit your preference.
