The Reversible Cabled Scarf is one of those scarves that is beautiful on both the right side and the wrong side! To make things interesting, our lovely Keri added alternating long and short cables that will keep the knitting from getting too repetitive. Knit up in the wonderfully soft Baby Alpaca Grande, this scarf will keep your neck warm and toasty all year. Thank you to Keri for allowing us use her wonderful pattern.
