The Country Crossroads Scarf is meant to invoke memories of driving down backcountry roads in the fall, taking in the beautiful golden aspens while choosing the next road you want to explore.

The scarf is knit in stripes of knit and purl stitches, with groups of smaller and larger cables set up in diamond formations. The larger cables give the illusion of a big design block but actually break down into smaller “roads” that come together and cross over each other and then turn back into their respective small “roads” again.

Cable pattern is written and charted.
