Otium in Latin means leisure, ease, peace, rest, repose. When I knit I very much slide into this state of mind. This pattern is a very simple eyelet mock cable infinity scarf/cowl, perfect to keep warm and snuggly for those colder months. A repeat of 8 simple rows, makes for a great beginner pattern, or something easy to knit when you feel like relaxing and keeping those fingers moving. Knit up in DK Alpaca Merino blend, on 5mm needles, it will have a wonderful drape, and be a quick winter knit.
