I totally fell in love with the oak leaf cable design from knittingfool.com and had to make it into something, and I’ve been admiring wimples and cowls lately. So, here’s the pattern. This is made with a sport weight yarn or a sock weight yarn to be nice and warm, but not too heavy. This yarn weight is perfect to show the complexities of the cable design, but not so heavy to be stiff. A variegated color is perfect with this falling leaf design.

The cable designs are relatively easy to knit, but I’m rating this pattern as experienced because you really need to know how to read your knitting in order to keep the patterns aligned.
