This is the 3rd variation of the Barrington Braid scarf - this time in cowl version. You can use from 2 - 4 skeins of Eco or Eco+ and make up to 4 items which can be worn up to 7 different ways!

Waves is a simple to knit scarf that has alternating rows of stocking stitch, reverse stocking stitch, and garter stitch bands in contrast colours.

While this pattern was knit with a worsted weight wool, you can use any yarn and needles you like to adjust the size and length (or bust your stash).

The Barrington Sweater is an Aran sweater, with lots of cables. The Barrington Braid is centered and flanked by Staghorn cables and a 6 strand cable. It is a saddle shoulder design, and although designed as a men’s sweater, is easily unisex.
