Valley Yarns Juniper is a fabulous cable neck warmer with two options. Knit in Wachusett, Juniper is worked in one piece and grafted for ease and speed, and it makes a fantastic gift for cooler weather. The neck warmer is knit flat, and the live stitches are then grafted together using Kitchener Stitch. Valley Yarns Wachusett is a gorgeous blend of Merino wool and cashmere, named after scenic Mount Wachusett. The cable pattern is charted and written out.
