The Honeycomb Conjecture Collection includes a cowl, scarf, blanket and wrap.


The honeycomb is a timeless, ageless, gender-neutral motif. It evokes thoughts of home, community and protection. Knit onto the fully reversible Honeycomb Conjecture Scarf, it creates pockets of warmth on both sides of the fabric. You will want to make one for every person on your knitworthy list.

You will be casting on the length of the scarf and following the 12 stitch pattern repeat is rhythmic. The Honeycomb Conjecture Tutorials teach you how to read your knitting, how each kind of stitch is worked and how to work every cable stitch. This is the kind of project you can pick up & put down -- giving satisfying crafting joy to every knitting moment.

Modified Fusion Knitting is a reversible technique that places mirrored designs on both sides of the fabric. It is accessible to anyone comfortable with cabling. This pattern looks similar to the Reversible Honeycomb Scarf that I previously designed but it is much easier to knit.
