Zhú 竹 Bamboo Scarf

Intermediate Skill Level - Extensive Cables w wide movement.

Directions are both Charted and Written (abbreviated) - I recommend chart reading skills.

Worked flat, bottom up.

Project requires blocking for best effect.

Unique mirrored cables with a 3 stitch seed edging.

I love the movement in this cable pattern.
It reminds me of leafy, woven trellis style lucky bamboo plants, hence the name.
