Ribs with a Twist
Start with the practicality of a simple ribbed fabric, add the undulating twists of cables, and what do you get? A perfect, luxurious, reversible fabric ready to become one of any number of accessories. Work it flat and you have a practical scarf. Graft the ends together and you have an easy-wearing infinity scarf. Add a half twist and you have a magical Mobius cowl. Choose one or make all three — how you twist your ribbing is up to you!
