I made this luxuriously soft cabled scarf and fingerless mittens kit for my friend Kate. Beautifully soft with a pattern for the scarf that repeats over 8 rows, so can be made to any length required. I used just two skeins of Mirasol Uysha to create this scarf, which blocks to a lovely length. But if you like your scarves to wrap round the neck at least twice I’d recommend adding an extra skein or even two. The mittens are knitted from just one 100g skein.

Happy knitting!
