Esker is inspired by the formation of glaciers. Carefully placed cables, irregularly shaped and often interlocking, are used to mimic the peaks and troughs typically found in glacial formations. The gender-neutral accessory will be adored by any nature-lover.

Esker is constructed in two halves and joined together using a 3 Needle Bind Off. The rib, at each end, leads gently into the cable pattern to give a seamless transition. There is a panel of moss stitch at the beginning and end of each row.
