PATTERN NOTES
This scarf is knit end to end, increasing to its widest point and then decreasing back down, and includes a slipped stitch border throughout. Shaping occurs along the scalloped right edge of the piece. Due to the scalloped edge, the total stitch count will fluctuate throughout the pattern. In this pattern, work all slipped stitches purlwise.
