I made this pattern because I wanted a lacy, not too thick, scarf that did not stretch narrow. Make this scarf long or short as you desire. Add fringes at the ends if you wish. Experiment with colour.
Finished Measurements:
Approximately 17.5 inches. Longer scarf can be made by adding more rows.
Yarn:
Crochet cotton thread size 8 (beige) in peach and lavender colour
Hook: Crochet hook size 2.5mm
Gauge: 22 stitches and 8 rows = 3" x 3" in stitch pattern
Terminology: Pattern is written using US crochet terminology
INSTRUCTIONS:
The scarf and flower are worked separately. The flower is attached to the scarf by tying the flower's ties through the lacy holes in the scarf, then the scarf is kept in place by passing the ties through the holes of the other end of the scarf. You can also use the flower as a corsage by sewing a pin at the back.
Special Stitches Used in this Pattern:
3 Double Crochet Together (3dctog): *Yo, insert hook in st and pull loop through, yo and and pull through 2 loops on hook, rep from * 2 more times, yo and pull through all 4 loops on hook.)

Scarf should measure approximately 17 inches. Test the scarf to check if you like the length, otherwise you can add more rows to make it longer. Don't fasten off – proceed to making the picot edges:
Picot edges: (These are just 3-ch loops spaced evenly all around the scarf) Ch 3, sc around post of first dc, ch 3, sc around same dc post, ch 3, sc around next dc post until end, making two 3-ch picots at every corner to turn. Fasten off.
