Cable Sampler Neck WrapDesigned by Crystal Guistinello
Experience level: Advanced Beginner
A fun way to explore cable patterns without committing to a full size sweater, this pattern
provides seven squares of cabled patterns that add up to be just the right length for a simple neck
wrap. Full instructions are given for a nice 6 stitch buttonhole for a fancy big button to finish it off. Knitup in a heavy worsted weight wool, the work is quick and easy to see. Good for someone who wants to
learn some basic cable patterns, and for anyone who would simply like an excuse to swatch several
patterns and end up with something wearable in the end. Each section is interchangeable so you can
also pick your favorite(s) and make up your own variation very easily. These are written instructions
only. There is a detail photo for each of the seven sections.
