A must have wardrobe item for all climates, to look great while keeping the chilly breezes at bay. This is designed to cover your shoulders, neck and back like a shawl but stay on so you can keep working. This cable and lace panel and boarder is challenging in only one line of the cable pattern so a good adventurous project but plenty of easy knitting as well. Skills you will use are a multi-needle cable, chart reading, grafting and provisional cast on. The yarn is DK weight cotton/flax blend knit to a Worsted gauge on a slightly bigger needle to give the garment drape
