FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Length (Excl. Fringe): 82.5” / 210 cm.
Width: 11.72” / 30 cm.
MATERIALS
Yarn: MC: Approx. 350 g / 1337 yds / 1225 m of fingering-weight yarn held double. Alternatively, you can use approx. 350 g / 668 yds / 612 m of worsted-weight yarn held single.
CC: Scrap yarn of any thickness or type. Several strands are held together as one for the woven embellishments. You will need 12 groups of strands approx. 99” / 250 cm in length, or 16” / 40 cm longer than the scarf for woven embellishments and 4 groups of strands approx. 16” / 40 cm for corner braids. Plant fibre yarns, such as cotton and linen yarns, are not recommended as they have little elasticity.
The sample was knitted in Nakyang A Cashmere (MC) in colourway 513, a soft, single-ply fingering-weight merino-alpaca-cashmere mix yarn. For CC, the following scrap yarns (among others) were used: Drops Brushed Alpaca Silk, Katia Cotton Merino, Malabrigo Arroyo and Brigitte No. 2 Seta.

CONSTRUCTION
This scarf is worked flat from end to end. It features cables and dropped stitches woven with scrap yarn, giving a look similar to a woven fabric. A built-in i-cord edge is created by slipping the first 3 stitches of each row.
