Niinis
CONSTRUCTION OF THE DESIGN
The mini scarf is worked flat tip to tip. You begin by working an i-cord edge and then picking up stitches from the side for the textured pattern. After picking up stitches, you will work increases on one side of the scarf and textured pattern between the i-cord edges. After the shaping, you continue working the textured pattern and i-cord edges until you reach the wanted length. Next, you begin to shape the end of the tip by working decreases. After the decreases are done, you graft the end tip.
