Its timeless cable chevron pattern adds texture, while making it versatile for draping casually around the neck or tying in different styles. The i-cord cast-on and edging provide a polished finish. You can even use it as a shoulder strap for a knitted bag, such as the **[ZZ Bag][2]**. The sturdy edging helps prevent the scarf from overstretching when used as a strap. A Chic Scarf begins with a neat cast on at the tip to achieve a seamless rounded edge. A video tutorial is linked in the pattern to guide you through this step. **YARN** 205 m / 225 yards of fingering weight yarn Suggested Yarn Lanivendole A Chic Blend (225 m / 246 yards per 50 g skein, 60% Abruzzese Wool, 20% Alpaca, 20% Mohair) Colourway: Senape **NEEDLE** One 3.75 mm / US 5, 40 cm / 16” or longer circular needle **FINISHED MEASUREMENTS** Length 124 cm / 49” Width 11.5 cm / 4½” **NOTIONS** Tapestry needle for weaving in ends, cable needle (optional) **GAUGE (after blocking)** 38 sts and 28 rows in chevron cable pattern = 10 cm / 4” with 3.75 mm / US 5 needle. **NOTES AND TECHNIQUES** A Chic Scarf is worked from tip to tip, starting with an i-cord cast-on using two needles.

Son motif à chevrons intemporel ajoute de la structure. Cet accessoire est polyvalent, pour un drapé décontracté autour du cou ou pour le nouer selon différents styles. Le montage et la bordure en i-cord lui confèrent une finition soignée. Vous pouvez même l'utiliser comme bandoulière pour un sac tricoté, comme le ZZ Bag de Yamagara. La bordure solide empêche l'écharpe de s'étirer excessivement lorsqu'elle est utilisée comme sangle. **NOTES ET TECHNIQUES** A Chic Scarf se travaille de la pointe à la pointe, en commençant par un montage en i-cord à l'aide de deux aiguilles. La méthode de montage est clairement expliquée dans les instructions, et un tutoriel vidéo est inclus pour une aide visuelle. Une fois la mise en place terminée, l'écharpe est tricotée selon les diagrammes, avec des bordures i-cord travaillées aux deux extrémités de chaque rang pour maintenir une finition élégante [1]: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/zz-bag [2]: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/zz-bag
