I received a free giant cable scarf pattern from Nina, and couldn't resist to knit one as a Christmas gift. The only problem is that one quickly turned into 3, and it kept me busy for the month of December.
First of all, let me just say that Twinkle knits Chunky is the absolute best yarn to work with. It is super soft and comfy. After these scarfs were lined up and blocked, I chuckled because it was a Block Party. Get it? BLOCK party? I promise that won't be the last time you hear that from me.
Here's a closeup of the finished products. I really love this giant cable - it was so fun to do!
I also made this cowl for my sister (aaaand ok, one for me, too!) and believe me when I say that it is the ultimate in keeping my neck warm in this horrid weather.
As a finishing touch, my mom and I found these tags at Nina. (You can find yours here):
So cute, right? I tied on coordinating yarn and on the back:
I wrote care instructions. Clever! I've got to give my mom credit with this one. It's such a nice finishing touch to any piece.
So that's what kept me busy this December. What kept you moving this month? :)

Beautiful work! We can start calling you "The Cable Gal" instead of "The Cable Guy" (old movie!)
