I perv over all the cable knits wishing I could make something myself at home but then I remind myself of a very complicated pattern I once saw and immediately talk myself out of it.
This year I finally got the balls to give it a go. Its really not that complicated at all! I started off with a simple two strand twist which I made out of Wool and the Gang's Crazy Sexy Wool in Sand Trooper Beige.
I knitted up this snood for my cousin as a Birthday present. The wool is so delicious that I also bought it in Margaux Red, Khaki, Midnight Blue and Forest Green.
Honestly it's so dreamy I don't want to use any other wool!
Here is the double plait cable knit snood in Margaux Red.
I used 12mm needles on both and they both knit up ridiculously fast.
I'm currently just finishing up a single plait snood with knitted rows down either side using the forest green. It's a custom order for a friend.
If you would like a custom pattern please get in touch via my Etsy Shop.
