Love sock yarn, but don't love socks? Here's a great alternative!
This scarf is sooo easy - and a great way to practice cabling skills. Use your favorite fingering weight yarn
and a ball of
Rowan Kidsilk Haze for body.... you'll have it done in no time!

Directions
- With both yarns held together, CO 32 sts

- Work Cable Row: *k1, p1* for 8 stitches, work cable, *k1, p1* for last 8 stitches
- Repeat Row 1 for 14 rows
- Work Cable Row: *k1, p1* for 8 stitches, work cable, *k1, p1* for last 8 stitches

- Repeat Row 1 for 5 rows
- Finishing: BO all stitches, weave in ends,
block to finished measurements and fan the bottom out to create the flared effect if
you like. I also tugged on the crossovers of the cables which gave the piece an open and lacy effect.
