Cabled Scarflette (knitting)

Yes, more knitting…I took a break from knitting coffee cozies (now that I have a small army of them) and decided to finish the neck warmer (“cabled scarflette”) that I started in the fall. I found the pattern here and did my best to replicate it. I’m not sure that I really nailed the button holes or putting the buttons on for that matter but nevertheless, here it is:

The finished piece is 25” long. I used one ball of Rowan Big Wool (Champion color) and size US 15 knitting needles.
