This is such a great looking pattern. I'm definately going to try it soon. Thanks for posting it!

This would look great with the Pinwheel hat pattern here:

It's on my project list of things to try... I've never done a scarf before!

Oh, the blessed Corkiness of it all. It's the de-loveliest!!

Thanks for posting this pattern! I used Tahki Cotton Classic instead of the Rowan Cork because the recipient is allergic to wool. My FO is here: http://yoko.typepad.com/photos/knitted_finished_objects/scarflet.html

I enjoy reading your blog, and wish you all the best.

Thanks for the pattern. I just finished mine with 2 skeins of Manos del Uruguay. It's a bit slubby, but it came out nice and rustic looking.

Wow! Beautiful *and* easy! I just used this to teach myself cables, and now I fear them no longer. Thanks so much for this pattern.

This is only gorgeous! I just finished mine with Jaegaer Artisan aran, and it's the perfect rustic chunky scarf for winter. Thank you so much.

Thanks for the pattern, I have about 10 inches done and I love it. So will my daughter when she gets the scarf for Christmas. Thanks again

Christine

Thank you for pattern. It is exactly the type of scarf I was looking for, Christmas presents for the men in my family and it had to be a scarf which was not thick and bulky. Perfect!

Jen

Thank you for the pattern. I am trying it with some Manos del Uruguay wool for a relative for Christmas!

Kristin

Finally! After starting and abandoning 3 other patterns that were way too girly, this is the perfect one to knit my hubby a scarf with the cashmere I bought at Smiley's Yarn Riot (NYC). It's my first cables!

Margaret

Thanks for this great pattern. I am going to use it to learn to knit cables. After I get the hang of a few more scarves, I'd really love to try one with that diagonal herringbone rib knit. If you wouldn't mind sending me the pattern for that one, I'd really appreciate it!

Hi! I found your pattern via the knitting community on Livejournal. I'm really looking forward to trying this pattern. :) I just had a question. When you say "(k1 p1) 3 times", do you mean "k1 p1 k1" or "k1 p1 k1 p1 k1 p1"? (Sorry if this should be obvious. I'm not so good with reading patterns yet. Eheh. XD)

Ash

i love this pattern and would like to start learning. i have a question. how come there are no instrustion for R10, R12, and R14?

 Patricia

its my first cable project, i have a question whats the instruction for R10, R12, R14 ???

Audrey

Lovely pattern. Using two strands of an old English DK yarn, it is lovely and thick! However, surely you missed K3 after the cable on row 13? Whatever, I am so happy with this pattern, so easy.

Audrey

Ooops! Having done about 6" on this scarf I finally looked at it closely and didn't think it looked right - well it wasn't! I had completely misread the instructions so I frogged it all and started over, oh it looks so much better now!! Apologies.

Katie

Wow! I am just tickled to death that I have about 8 inches worth of scarf on my needles now. I have never cabled before and barely knit (crocheter). How very pretty! Many thanks for sharing!

gene

I think there is a major mistake in the cable area of the directions. When I knitted about 15 rows I realized that the cable is twisting in only one direction. I think that's why some of the others had a problem as well. Help!

debbie

WHERE IS ROW 10 I REALLY LIKE THE LOOK OF THE SCARF AND WOULD LIKE TO MAKE IT .HELP DOES ANYONE HAVE THE CORRECTED DIRECTIONS

Lazy Knits

Great scarf and I think it would be great knitted up for a guy too!

Ann

In case anyone hasn't gotten it yet: Instructions for R8 cover "all wrong side rows", meaning that Rows 10, 12, 14, etc are the same as row 8. I had a thought, looking at the wallhanging: If you had another dowel, and knit this VERY loosely in a chunkier yarn & then FELTED it, it would make a very nice & simple purse! Attach straps to the dowels -- maybe with a mini-cable on each?-- and "carry on"!

Sabrina

Could someone point me to directions on how to begin a scarf pattern with the intention of tasseled edges? I want this cable scarf but with tassels tied off on each end. Dont know how to cast on for that!
Thanks!

Sabrina

Second question: is this pattern wide enough for a tall strapping guy?
