Elegant, simple two-step cables trim the ends of
this luxurious wrap, before fading slowly into a chunky 2x6 rib, which forms the background fabric for the majority of the body of the scarf. Cables on the ends of the scarf read clearly, while the ribbed background fabric is easy to knit and subtle to wear. Fleurville 4-ply’s incredible drape and lightness make for a finished fabric that effortlessly adorns any outfit, providing just enough warmth to take the chill off a cool morning or evening, without overwhelming.
