Notes

My tall friend requested an extra long scarf, so I added a skein and the scarf measured just under 8 feet long. The cable pattern is so simple and yet, so lovely when done and this yarn is absolutely scrumptious.

Whether it’s because it’s a 16 stitch cable, or whether it’s because the yarn is bulky, it was more cumbersome to cable without a cable needle than with, so I recommend using one (I just grabbed a DPN).

I don’t know if it’s this yarn in particular or whether it’s because I usually spray block my knits, but this thing took forever to dry (blocked after soaking as directed in pattern) and I had to help it along with a blow dryer despite it blocking for almost two days.

This is a relatively quick knit, though I was usually just getting in a few rows here and there due to lack of free time.
