GAUGE:
13 dc = 4 in. (10 cm). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
Exact gauges is not imporant to this project.
NOTES:
If you wish curls of Scarf to be symmetrical, work Scarf in two halves.
For each half, ch 90, then work Rows 1-4 as for Scarf.
Sew halves together so that each half curls away from the center back.
Continue with Finishing as for one piece Scarf.
