A gorgeous, quick knit that makes a fantastic gift. How quick? About 2 movies worth, so definitely doable in one evening knitting binge. Then you can gift it or wear it the same day!

This pattern is a great introduction to cabling - if cables intimidate you, this pattern will help you overcome that fear! Since there are 3 and they are big and the pattern is simple, it’s a breeze! Also, you’ll use a 3 needle bind off to minimize finishing. (As in, weave in those ends and it’s ready to wear!)

Instructions are for one size that fits most adults.

This pattern is for the adventurous beginner or newly intermediate knitter (or experts who want something fabulous with instant gratification). It uses knit stitches, purl stitches, and introduces cabling. The optional 3 needle bind off technique uses knitting two stitches together. Yep that’s it.
