Wind me round and round, spiral cable scarf pattern, knitted

Wound twice around, also looks good if you double it and loop it through. I made this scarf in two days, on breaks during work and at home while watching TV. It was a joy to knit. I hope you enjoy it! If you make it I would love to see a pic of it. I made the cable a tight one, I like the look of the spiral cable, and I usually do not like scarves this long but this one is great. Made for a special person.

Knitters Tarot Tuesday Reading

Seven of pentacles or coins Take a break from your hectic life and enjoy your knitting. Do some knitting for yourself, or something you really enjoy. If you are knitting frantically to complete some gifts take a break. On the Seven of Pentacles we see a man who has labored long and hard in his garden. The foliage is full, the blossoms are out - it seems that his work has paid off. Now he's taking a break to admire his handiwork. How satisfying it is to see such fine results! How rewarding is sweet success! The Seven of Pentacles is a time-out card. It represents those moments after a rush of activity when we stop to catch our breath and look around. The man in the picture has paused to contemplate the fruits of his own labors, but he could also pick that fruit. In readings, the Seven of Pentacles can indicate a reward that will come your way, particularly as a result of your own efforts. Take it and enjoy. The Tarot is a deck of cards that originated over 500 years ag
