Sabrina Scarf

This little scarf is worked from tip to tip in a beautiful eyelet cable pattern. 

It uses less than one skein of fingering weight yarn and the size is easy to customize. 

The work begins by increasing stitches until you reach the center of the scarf, then continues by decreasing towards the other tip. If you’d like to use up an entire skein, continue the increase section until you have just over a half of the yarn remaining and then proceed to the decreases. The pattern includes both charted and written instructions.
