A hint of spring for the winter.

Cho, which is Japanese for butterfly, owes its name to the butterfly-like cable stitch that is worked throughout the pattern. It knits up into a very squishy, long scarf that you’ll just want to snuggle in!

The scarf is worked in three sections, starting with gradual increases, followed by a long rectangular section, and ending with a decrease section. Tassels are attached to both ends of the scarf for a playful effect.
