Sah'aab
This pattern has written instruction for construction, but the stitch patterns are almost entirely charted.
When I saw the yarn for this sample, I immediately said that it looked just like a cloud. Imagine my surprise when I found out that the yarn name was the Quechua word for cloud! Later, I found that even the color name was cloud. Undulating cables are utilized to represent all kinds of clouds in this warm, hooded scarf, named in Arabic for clouds.
Finished Measurements: Scarf - 9 inches / 23 cm wide
38 inches / 96.5 cm long
Hood - 10 inches / 25.5 cm long
8.5 inches / 21.5 cm deep
Skills Required: Increasing and decreasing, cabling, slipping stitches, purling through back loops, picking up and knitting, picking up and purling, chart reading, keeping track of multiple charts.
Note: The sample was knit with a superbulky yarn constructed by blowing fiber at high pressure into a cage-like tube of another fiber, creating a light weight yarn that can be compressed a bit more than a normal superbulky. You could probably get away with substituting a bulky, if it were a plied yarn.
