The French Toast Scarf is cabled, reversible, and oh-so-smooshy. It’s a VERY quick knit! Worked up in a thick-and-thin hand-dyed & hand-spun merino wool, it’s a pleasure to knit and especially a pleasure to wear. The pattern includes options for two sizes: a slim and long scarf or a wide and shorter scarf.

Construction Details
The scarf is worked in one piece along the short edge. Ribbing and cables make up the reversible stitch pattern.
