Nechama

I love cables, especially reversible ones for cowls and scarves. You can wrap them any way and there is no wrong side showing. This cowl is made up of 4 cables arranged in a pattern with eyelet cables on each side. All the cables are left cross cables, so it is a good pattern to practice cabling without a needle or to learn how to cable. These two yarns are so soft and feel great against the skin. No itchy neck when wrapped around it. Nechama is a hebrew name meaning comfort. What can be more comforting then a soft cowl wrapped around your shoulders or neck? I think this will be a great accessory to your fall wardrobe.

Yarns: Shibui Baby Alpaca & Shibui Silk Cloud. Suggested substitutes are below.

This scarf is reversible except at the bind-off seam. The cables are constructed with a 1 x 1 rib stitch. What appears as a 4-st cable is actually an 8-st cable, the purl sts are not visible.
