GAUGE: 19 sts x 40 rows in garter stitch on 4 mm US 6 needles = 10 x 10 cm 4 x 4 = inches.

NEEDLES: 4 mm US 6 circular needle 60 or 80 cm 24 or 32 inches or 2 x 4 mm US 6 DPN’s.

YARN: For this scarf you will need approx. 120 (170) meter 131 (186) yards Light DK weight yarn or fingering weight yarn held together with a lace weight yarn. It is important to choose an extra soft yarn since you are going to wear the scar close to your neck.
I recommend 25 (50) g Cardiff Cashmere Classic (110 m 120 yds = 25 g) but you can also choose a soft merino, a bamboo yarn or a soft leftover yarn form your stash as long as the yarn is comparative with the gauge of the scarf.
