BRAID
Chain four times the length of the scarf (240 in/610 cm). Do not finish off.
ASSEMBLY
Follow the tutorial to slip stitch the chain into the ch-2 space in the middle of 2V-stitches along the length of the scarf. Work loosely to allow the scarf to drape and not to restrict its natural stretchiness. Once slip stitches are made along the whole length of the scarf, finish off and secure the ends. Weave in the ends.
Block your scarf by using a steam-blocking or wet-blocking method.
