| Double knitting weight yarn with good stitch definition. | |
| 28 sts and 30 rows = 4"/ 10cm in garter rib pattern | |
| Size US 3 / 3.25mm needles | |
| 88[77]" / 220[193]cm long and 7[14]" / 18[34]cm wide (during wearing rib will naturally compress in centre portion). |
Both ends of the scarf are fully charted so there's no need to graft the centre in order to have matching ends. The cable patterning is confined to the area most visible when worn, while the background is worked in a fast rib pattern made up of more knits that purls. The polished edging is simply worked with slipped stitches and stockinette, using the natural roll of stockinette for a rounded finish.
Hiraeth is written in two sizes: a wide wrap for cozying up in and a longer skinnier version perfect for wearing in a dapper woven knot.

Shown in Triskelion Yarn and Fiber Idris DK (100% British superwash Bluefaced Leicester, 245 yds / 225m, 3.5oz / 100g) in Llyr.
De Rerum Natura Ulysse (100% merino, 202 yds / 185m, 50g) in Printemps.
Note that the worsted spun Idris DK is much denser than the lofty woollen spun Ulysse, hence the very different yardage to weight ratios.
