Chuck's Scat


It's a hat!
It's a scarf!

No! It's a Scat!



If you look closely, you'll see the scarf is attached to the decrease portion of the hat. It comes down the back and wraps around the neck to dangle in front.

I did it on the fly without a pattern, but now I'm smarter. I know how I SHOULD have done it. If anyone expresses interest I'll post a 'shoulda' recipe.

That hat cable pattern is a modified "Ice Storm." The top portion of the scarf is the Irish Hiking Scarf pattern and the bottom of the scarf is garter stitch with fringe.

The 'shoulda' recipe will be the modified Ice Storm throughout.

What the heck, got rid of that Dusty Rose crappy acryllic stuff. (Yet another reason to call it Scat.)

No that looks a bit different.

Similar though. Hey, if they're cruising MY blog for ideas, that's pretty sad. And maybe a little flattering.

But probably it's not.
