CYCLAMEN MINI SCARF
A new addition to the Cyclamen family, this design is very versatile for using up partial or smaller skeins in your stash.
The scarf is worked from tip to tip. The stitch pattern is mostly composed of simple lace, with dip stitches forming the flowers worked once in ten rows.
Both the scarf’s width and length are adjustable. You can also add tassels to the tips if desired - I know I can’t skip them! Directions are both charted and written out, video for dip stitches provided.
YARN
Sport / DK / worsted weight yarn: choose depending on how dense you would like the fabric to be
