Tips

• To maintain an even edge, be sure to place your first and last hdc in each row correctly.
• Use a stitch marker in the first and last stitch of the row until you are comfortable identifying them.
• For a wider scarf, increase the starting chain in multiples of one.
• Crochet a gauge swatch to ensure your scarf will be the desired size and texture.
