Cuddle Cable Sofa Throw
A very thick, thick wool was singing to us and asking to be made into a very big throw.
We have chosen a very simple design, in modular repeats, so that it can be sized up or down according to knitting stamina or sofa size. British wool has no rival for sturdy warmth, so we have designed this wonderful yarn for you to form into fantastical shapes on fat needles. Cast off and crawl under this enormous cabled wonder…
Enjoy
