I lost the label of the yarn part way through knitting it, so bare with me while I note what I remember from the label:
The yarn was called 'Tosca'; 55% wool, 45% acrylic. Tension: 12 sts, 17 rows =4" (10cm) with US7 (4.5mm) needles. 50 grams, and around 95 or so yards to it.
What makes this scarf interesting is that the cables are slightly offset from each other, which is a nice detail. Nearly 4" wide (9.5cm) and 28" (71.75cm) long, it's ideal to keep your neck warm in the cold weather.
Pattern: (over 8 rows)
rows 1, 3, 5, & 7: p2, k2, p6, k2, p2, k2, p6, k2, p2
rows 2 & 6: k2, p2, k6, p2, k2, p2, k6, p2, k2
row 4: k2, p2, place 2 sts on cable needle and hold in front, k2, k2 from cable needle, k2, p2, k2, p2, k2, place 2 sts on cable needle and hold behind, k2, k2 sts from cable needle, p2, k2
row 8: k2, p2, k2, place 2 sts on cable needle and hold behind, k2, k2 sts from cable needle, p2, k2, p2, place 2 sts on cable needle and hold in front, k2, k2 from cable needle, k2, p2, k2
Repeat these 8 rows until your entire skein is used, but leave enough to cast (or bind) off.
