A scarf that channels the Taylor Swift cardigan. Make it for any era you want!

You need two different colors of yarn - one for the main part of the scarf (the cables) and one for the stripes

I used Loops & Threads Impeccable for the main scarf (1.5 skeins) and the stripes (less than 1 skein) for a 72.5” scarf.

Level: Beginner-friendly
Necessary skills: Cast on, knit, purl, SlK (slip knit-wise), cable, cast off

Other notions

• size 9 needle
• cable needle
• tapestry needle
• stitch markers (I recommend using one between each type of stitch/cable, which I distinguished with different font colors
• scissors

I repeated the main cable part 13 times, but you can repeat it as many times as you want
