The pattern has a central cable motif, beautifully finished with a picot crochet border for an extra decorative touch. If the picot edge isn’t your style, I suggest knitting the first three and last three stitches with the garter stitch to help prevent curling. At the end of this pattern, you’ll find a chart, but I’ve also included a written version. Row 15 is a bit trickier due to the cabling process, so if you need extra help, you can check out the full tutorial on YouTube! The video includes everything from the first row to sewing on the tassel. I highly recommend watching it if anything is unclear.
