Cashmere is a girl's best friend
A very special thanks to JulieHinz, Jodermcnoder1, MyMerinoMantra and Travelingknitter who kindly accepted to test this pattern.
Cashmere should always be worn very close to the skin! This is a scarf that is wrapped twice around the neck, with both extremities attached at the front with i-cords. This scarf has an i-cord edging and a lace motif at its extremities.
This pattern contains written explanations, a chart and the definition of all abbreviations.
