Mini Cable Ensemble pattern

“This pattern started with the desire to make a two-sided scarf and ended with a coordinating set of three pieces. The twist is that the worsted weight wool is enhanced with a single strand of lace weight mohair/silk which makes it warmer and makes it feel luxurious. Knitter's will learn how to make mini-cables without the assistance of a cable needle.“ ~Joan
