This unique pattern is a gorgeous cabled design sure to increase your cable skills and knowledge. Behind The Scenes is knit as a long rectangle that may be worn as a scarf or stylishly buttoned into a cozy cowl.

The cowl is knit in HiKoo’s brand new yarn Oh! Available in eight colors, this chunky yarn is made of 100% Super Baby Alpaca for unprecedented softness. One touch and you will know exactly how the yarn got its name because everyone who holds this amazing yarn immediately sighs, “Oh!”.

Once again, button selection was tons of fun for me. Since they are a prominent feature in the pattern, I wanted a button that was a complement to the bold cable work. I chose the 1” horn buttons seen nestled in the yarn above. For those interested, the buttons are by Skacel buttons #BM0718H30.
