Double Knit Braided Cable Scarf on Long Loom | Rectangular Loom | Double Rake | Loom Knit Scarf

[@hellomsyarn]

About the yarn, I used a wool blend called Estelle Bulky (150m/164 yards, 10-12 stitches on a 8-10mm needle). The ball band doesn't give the yarn weight in a way that I'm used to seeing. It doesn't say #5 or #6. Estelle Bulky appears heavier than Charisma #5, and lighter than Wool Ease Thick and Quick #6. I had made a swatch of the scarf using Wool Ease Thick and Quick #6, and it was too dense and didn't have enough drape. For people who can't find Estelle Bulky, I think Charisma or another #5 would be a good choice, but you'd have to create a small piece to really know. Also possible that there are lighter #6 yarns that would be appropriate. Comparison pic here instagram.com/p/CZc665LuZRI/?

Thank you. I agree it's between a 5 & 6. Maybe doubling the #5 would make it work because it just needs a little more. I don't order online plus I have a lot of yarn boxes thru the years. Thank you for replying. Great answer

[@debras2845]

Wow what a detailed response. You are a superb person very kind and generous. Thank you so much!!

[@catherineportland503]

The 2 charisma yarns#5 ended out to thick. I'm using a long loom kk which is 3/4 so I'm not sure what gauge you are using on the loom thanks

[@catherineportland503]

Can I send you a picture Ms yarn

[@karenf3455]

New to looming , regarding the right/left twist . Once you get to row 10 left twist. Do I go back to 4b 5b & 9b 10b OR just continue with 11b 10b & 6b 5b Then right twist 6b 5b & 11b 10b I'm all twisted .

I really love this pattern. You broke it down and made it so easy. You are a wonderful teacher!

[@hellomsyarn]

Thank you!

You are an incredible teacher… I have learned from all of your videos… keep doing more projects…I love your work

It's a labour of love, thank you.

Another great video! I love how you add the diagram of the pattern... so helpful! THANK YOU!

Thanks so much!

Oooo, what a perfectly lovely scarf! Thanks so much for sharing your brilliant instructions, so helpful ❤️ I don't know if you take suggestions/requests on other designs to make but I'd really love to learn how to do fingerless mitts with a thumb in double-knit. I do a lot of double-knitting but haven't been able to find a pattern/tutorial on how to do those on a double rake loom. With your excellent teaching skills I think you would be able to explain it superbly well. Thanks so much for listening and I look forward to your next tutorial with great eagerness ❤️

[@hellomsyarn]

I'll keep that suggestion in mind, thanks!

Thank you! I m finishing up my 2nd criss cross scarf now and then I want to make one of these! 💕

[@hellomsyarn]

Your second criss cross scarf! Nice. Hope you can try this one too.

Beautiful!! Thank you!

Thanks!

[@jnicolettebailey]

Such a fantastic channel LOVE your videos !!!!!

[@hellomsyarn]

Thank you!

[@catherineportland503]

I tried a premier serenity bulky #5. Too thin you definitely need a #6 even a small 6. Going to Frog and find a small #6. Thank you for your videos. Saw another pattern I want to do. ❤❤❤❤❤❤ not A thick #6 as she stated above hometown, bernat are a no.

[@catherineportland503]

Update on 3/8 loom with #5 charisma. Update add use the same AMT of (14) pegs as she does and follow the pattern exactly. Works very good. Ends out like hers but only 4.5 inches across.

[@deborahcunningham4765]

Beautiful scarf as always. Question: How would one make the scarf reversible? I think you ,mentioned it but could you elaborate on it? Would one mark the same pegs in row A as in row B and do the twists the same in row A as in row B? Thanks.

[@hellomsyarn]

I haven't tried to make the braid on the "wrong" side, but if you were to do the twists at the same time as the "right" side, I predict that the yarn would be too tight to really stretch much. You would need to experiment, I think.

[@paullinnell]

Love your videos!!❤❤

[@hellomsyarn]

Thank you.

[@debras2845]

A great video. I marked you as a new favorite. You have some great videos and love your instructional style. Is that a chunky yarn? Thanks

[@hellomsyarn]

It's hard for me to reply whether it's chunky or not, since I'm not great at yarn definitions. But you can see my pinned comment about the yarn, it might help.

[@craftydawn972]

love it

[@hellomsyarn]

Thanks!

[@roseannegibson3343]

Awesome

[@hellomsyarn]

Thanks.

[@sailingbrewer]

Can you add the twist to both sides if you did the same twist on both side A & B? Or would you need to do a right twist on the A side and a left Test on the B side? Thanks

[@catherineportland503]

May I ask a question? I'm not sure when this video was made but I tried charisma bulky 5 and I think you are using a bulky 6 like hometown USA yarn. Bulky 5 years ago were bigger. Suggestion can you specify the bulky you are using for each projects. Thanks. Love your videos and especially your drawing which helps a lot for me. Thank you for your time

[@hellomsyarn]

Great question, you're not the only one who is asking about yarn. Please see my pinned comment for more info, hope it helps!

[@djcropat3473]

Love this pattern. Do you have a pattern for braided cabled fingerless gloves to go with this?

[@hellomsyarn]

Unfortunately, I do not.

[@timsmith7200]

Is there a hat pattern to match this scarf

[@bluesbob5611]

How big was the ball of yarn

[@tamarasdreamworld]

Hello! Did you finish your temperature scarf? Can we see the finished product?

[@hellomsyarn]

Well, I finished it on my own terms which means I stopped at some point in July. I shared a picture on my Instagram. instagram.com/p/CYg0MIWrSqn/?

[@sonjalicof9156]

Is there a similar for thinner wool?

[@hellomsyarn]

There are smaller gauge rectangular looms out there for thinner yarn.

[@iteriatodd3838]

I really, really love this pattern! But just as one other person said, is this yarn a bulky 5, or a bulky 6 in this particular yarn? Thanks for the magic connection when adding 🧶.

[@hellomsyarn]

Good question. I pinned a comment about the yarn that I hope is helpful.

[@enasahmedfathy3400]

Excuseme how long is the yarn by meters ?plz Any one guys know how long does it take by meter?

[@enasahmedfathy3400]

???

[@hellomsyarn]

Each ball is 150 metres, and I think I used maybe one and a half balls.

[@triciafritz7154]

Good question Catherine German. I also have a question along those lines. I tried to look up how many yards. Are in Estelle yarn. I can't find it. All yarns are different. So how many yards are in one of your balls of yarn. Ohh yes I love this scarf. Another famous scarf.

[@hellomsyarn]

Hopefully my pinned comment can shed more light on the yarn. Estelle Bulky is 164 yards long.

[@triciafritz7154]

@@hellomsyarn Thank you. THANK YOU so very much. I needed this information so much. I love your scarf patterns. And tutorials.

[@catherineportland503]

Just wanted to tell you all I'm trying this pattern on a kb 10 inch with 14 pegs and charisma #5 yarn. Looks like it is working great loom is 3/8 gauge it's going to take me longer to do

[@hellomsyarn]

Great to hear! Glad you found a solution.

[@Born_Again_Viking]

I tried countless times to do this and every single time the yarn pops off, and I will never in my life attempt this stupid pattern again!!!!!!!!

[@pattymullin8515]

There isn't a problem with the pattern itself which is excellent, one of the best illustrated, demonstrated and explained I have ever seen on any channel. The issue might be with yarn tension, not pushing down the loops, pegs very short for the yarn size being used, or other problems?
