Irish Hiking Scarf

Aren’t the cables fun to do??

I used IHS for my first cabled project too, and for my very first scarf actually, only I subsituted the middle twist for a braided cable instead because I wanted to know how that was done aswell.

This was the result:

I have frogged it since though because the yarn I used just was too harsh to be used as a scarf; I’ve tried it but it just didn’t feel nice on my face so I decided the yarn was better saved for some other project and I’ll make the scarf again someday in a softer type of yarn.
I had loads of fun figuring it out and making it though!

Yours looks awsome in the cream colour! I had wondered how the cables would look in a lighter colour since I’m thinking of going that direction too to wear with my black wintercoat :slight_smile:

oih!! I’m sorry, I didn’t realise that this picture would show up this huge :wall:

I’ll have to run to my other computer and resize it; I’ll do that asap.

edited to add: phew, it’s smaller now and I feel better about it again :slight_smile:

Funny, I just printed this pattern out, Sandy, and have it on my list, after I get done with the Branching Out scarf, and the Karaoke Cabled scarves!!

Karen, I LOVE your scarf! :heart:

And Trudy, good luck with the IHS! It’s so fun, and the pattern is EASILY memorized. My husband is always amazed to see me work on it without a pattern! :teehee:
