Construction: The Newport scarf features a deep ribbed edging that transitions to a cable and twisted stitches pattern. This pattern creates a very classic, very warm scarf.

The pattern includes complete written and charted instructions. This scarf is knit flat (back and forth in rows). I recommend a 16” circular needle as that’s what I prefer to use for projects that get very large, but you can use straight needles or a longer circular.
