I love reversible stitch patterns. And reversible cable patterns are my favorite sort of magic.

While I started with the basic idea of the original Every Way Wrap, I switched out the cables for other reversible cables. Just for fun. I highly recommend Norah Gaughn’s Cable Stitches Source Book for ideas on picking your own cables.

The yarn, Solitude Wool’s Tunis 3 ply is perfect for crisp cabling. Tunis is a medium type wool, about in the middle of all the characteristics of wool: crimp, fineness, staple length, strength, bulk, elasticity. This means the construction is important to the behavior of the yarn and the final project. Gently scoured and then carded and spun into a stout 3 ply, this is the right yarn for this project.

I cast on 72 sts, and started off with 12” of 2x2 ribbing. Then divided up my sts:

• 8 garter sts (4 each edge)

• 28 sts in moss st

• 36 sts in reversible cables
