INTRODUCTION
The Nova Scarf is worked flat in garter stitch with an I-cord edge on one side of the scarf and a lace edge on the other side. It is knitted in three sections: a section with increases, a middle section and a section with decreases.
You can find a video on YouTube that introduces you to the scarf and shows you how the scarf is constructed, how the start is made, and how the I-cord and YO’s are done. The video is here.

NEEDLES: 4 mm US 6 circular needle 60 or 80 cm 24 or 32 inches or 2 x 4 mm US 6 DPN’s.

YARN: For this scarf you will need a Light DK weight yarn or fingering weight yarn held together with a lace weight yarn. It is important to choose an extra soft yarn since you are going to wear the scarf close to your neck.
I recommend 25 (50) g Cardiff Cashmere Classic (110 m 120 yds = 25 g) but you can also choose a soft merino, a bamboo yarn or a soft leftover yarn form your stash as long as the yarn is comparative with the gauge of the scarf.
