Snowbird Scarf
PATTERN NOTES 
The Snowbird Scarf features two different sizes, a mini 
scarf and a larger, wrap style scarf. Both scarves are worked 
flat, from point to point. Simple 3-stitch cables hug long, 
narrow bands of slipped knit stitches. The right edge of the 
scarf is increased every 4 rows on the first half of the scarf 
length and decreased every 4 rows on the second half. The 
left edge remains straight along the full length of the scarf. 
DK weight yarn creates a lightweight fabric with effortless 
drape. An i-cord edge adds a polished finish to both sides of 
the scarf. This pattern is charted and includes separate written 
instructions. All repeats appear in bold italicized text.
