Got a Game of Thrones fan in your life? Need a unique yet wearable & cosy gift for the season?

This scarf was inspired by the body art and famous braid of the legendary Khal Drogo from the popular television series “Game of Thrones”. A pointed garter stitch scarf that features contrasting stripes and a centre cable that’s perfect for both bold colour combinations and unisex neutrals.

A simple and fairly fast knit, this pattern is easy to memorise. It is designed for DK (8ply) and Light Worsted (10ply) yarns but is adaptable to any yarn you like.

All instructions are written and include Youtube links for stitch & colour work help. For extra convenience, a table of rows, stitch counts and pattern placement is also provided to print out and check off as you knit. Size is adaptable by the number of stitches you increase or decrease at either side of the centre cable, the repeats worked, and the weight and amount of yarn you use.
