A Walk through Aspens Cowl

$6.00

Design
This design is an oversized cabled cowl featuring my A WALK THROUGH ASPENS cable. This scarf is 9”/23 cm wide and the circumference will accommodate both small and large adult-sized necks. The cable repeat measures 5”/13 cm, so you can easily add or remove repeats to adapt the fit. See finished measurements for circumference.

Worked up on large needles and super bulky yarn. This is a relatively quick knit that you’ll be able to knock out in a weekend. Pattern is written in TWO sizes. S/M (moss green sample) & L/XL (light grey sample). All repeats appear in bold text throughout pattern. The pattern is charted and also includes separate written instructions.
