Product Description
Knit the harvest! Cute cabled design features pumpkins and vines running vertically up the length of the scarf. Perfect for Halloween and Thanksgiving.
Written directions and an easily memorized repeat make this pattern suitable for a wide varieety of knitters.
Includes directions for two versions: one in worsted and one in fingering weight. Both versions require approx. 650 yards yarn (3 skeins Malabrigo, 2 skeins Camelspin.)
The worsted version is more casual, a quicker, chunkier knit, measuring 12" by 60" and using size 7 & 8 needles.
Fingering version drapes better and is long enough to wrap several times around the neck, measuring 12" by 72" and using size 2 & 3 needles.
