Twin Cable Scarf

This scarf is 36 stitches wide with a 4 stitch border on all sides. The cables are 4 stitches wide and twist toward the center of the scarf. The pattern is very easy to get down when you are familiar with the cable stitch. I originally did this pattern with a 3 knit stitch border before I knew that stockinette curled.

Cast on 36 stitches

Knit four rows of garter stitch for the border
1. K4, P7, K4, P6, K4, P7, K4
2. K11, P4, K6, P4, K11
3. K4, P7, K4, P6, K4, P7, K4
4. K11, P4, K6, P4, K11
5. K4, P7, LC, P6, RC, P7, K4
Repeat rows 2-5
To finish, add rows 2-4, knit four rows of garter stitch, and bind off.

LC = Left Cable: slide 2 to cable needle and hold in front, K2, K2 from cable needle
RC = Right Cable: slide 2 to cable needle and hold in back, K2, K2 from cable needle

Note: I have not tested this pattern to make sure the garter stitch border is enough to make it lay flat.
