Obsession Scarf

Obsession: a persistent preoccupation

Delightfully understated, these subtle cables with their resemblance to hearts are so captivating that they just may become your new obsession too!
​
The scarf is worked flat, from the bottom up, while the cables are worked in one direction until the centre and then worked in the opposite direction down the other side of the scarf. 
Please Note that this causes the cables to look non-identical!

The pattern is provided with both written instructions and charts.

Obsession Slouchy Hat
Obsession Cowl
Sweet Obsession Mitts
Sweet Obsession Socks
