This is a short, lightweight scarf designed to sit neatly under the collar of a jacket. It adds warmth without bulk and carries a soft lace rhythm that looks elegant whether you wear it tucked in or draped open. The repeat is easy to memorize, and a single skein gives you plenty of fabric to work with.
