About the pattern
Sisu Scarf is a narrow scarf worked flat in a simple rib pattern (k1, p1) with slipped edge stitches for neat edges. Buttonholes are worked at regular intervals, allowing the scarf to be styled in different ways. The length is easily adjustable, and it can also be worn as a belt by knitting it longer than your waist measurement. After finishing, buttons are sewn onto the marked stitches.
