~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reversible cables and a bulky yarn make Tussis a quick and simple knit. A center reversible cable is flanked by a second reversible stitch to create a unisex scarf that will keep you fashionably warm as your teeth are chattering and you’re cursing the gods for the blast of icy wind on your face!

The cable pattern is both written and charted.
