Difficult Techniques, if any: Stitches themselves are easy – it’s keeping track of the
pattern rows which requires close attention.
Note: Size #6 needles are also suggested for this yarn, which would yield a 22st/4″
gauge.
RUPE- A Cabled Unisex Scarf Pattern for Man or a Woman
This is a Cabled Scarf for a Man or a Woman. It was made as a 40th birthday gift for my
friend Rupert. I tried a number of patterns, finally coming up with this, which has a
stitch count of 40 and worked out to be the width I was looking for on size 9 needles.
After a couple of repeats you may not need to look at the pattern anymore. Once you're
more comfortable, you'll see that on the wrong side, you're just knitting your knit
stitches and purling the purls.
There is no gauge here, my finished scarf is about 6" wide and 6' long, and you can make
it as long or short as you want, depending on taste and how much yarn you have
available.
