This pattern is knitted with the long side of stitches on the needles so that it turns out looking like a very short, very wide scarf!

The garter band around the edge, prevents the sides from curling and offers texture to the stripey, twisted stitch pattern. This matches all the other items in the stripes collection.

If you’d like to substitute yarn I recommend Debbie Bliss Glen
Or Rowan Cocoon
