Mock Cable Hug Me
Introducing the Hug Me: a versatile knitting pattern that combines the best elements of a cape, shawl, and wrap, making it the perfect cozy accessory for any occasion. Whether you're dressing up for a night out, lounging around the house, or heading to the office, this stylish layer of warmth will elevate your outfit while keeping you snug.
The Hug Me pattern is designed to be worked both back and forth and in the round on a 29" #10 1/2 circular needle (or size to achieve gauge). This makes it accessible for knitters of various skill levels. The project features two unique pattern stitches: a Reversible Rib and a Mock Cable Rib, adding both texture and visual interest.
For this delightful wrap, both sizes require six 100-gram (128-yard) skeins of Cascade 128 yarn. The Small/Medium size uses approximately 5 1/2 skeins, while the Large/XL size will use the full six skeins. With its generous sizing, the Hug Me is designed to fit comfortably and stylishly on a range of body types.
The Mock Cable Rib is a creative four-row repeat that utilizes a combination of slipped stitches and yarn overs, allowing you to create beautiful mock cables without the hassle of a cable needle! This feature makes the pattern not only fun but also beginner-friendly, allowing you to focus on your knitting rhythm.
What sets Hug Me apart is its seamless construction—there is no finishing required beyond weaving in the ends, making it an ideal project for those who prefer quick and easy completion. You’ll find the pattern includes detailed instructions and seven helpful photographs on the last two pages, which need not be printed, allowing you to save on paper while still having everything you need at your fingertips.
Whether you're knitting this wrap for yourself or as a thoughtful gift for a loved one, the Hug Me pattern will surely become a cherished wardrobe staple. Grab your yarn and needles, and start creating your go-to cozy accessory today!
