Garbanzo is a wide scarf/wrap that features an interesting textured stitch pattern that is fun to knit while still being easy to create. Using heavy worsted/aran-weight yarn on a larger-than-usual needle creates a more airy stitch pattern that opens up beautifully after blocking.

Stone Wool Cormo Worsted is the perfect yarn for this project, with its lofty, springy feel, beautiful stitch definition and the ideal amount of ‘bloom’ after blocking.

Pattern also includes step-by-step instructions for working the Elizabeth Zimmermann sewn bind-off (although this is optional if you prefer a regular bind-off), as well as a link to a “tips” page where I explain with pictures my recommended way to memorize the stitch pattern.
