Thistle is a fun, fast moving scarf that gives the knitter the option of ending it short or continuing to any length.

The stitch pattern is simple and is simply the same stitch used in different ways to create a fun thick thin appearance.

The Faux Cable design shows up great with Chesapeake! Shown is super short scarf version. To knit a longer scarf additional balls will be required.
