Frequently asked questions

Why use such a small 2.0mm hook?

The scarf is worked in fine size 5 lace thread, so a 2.0mm hook keeps the stitches tight enough to hold the open fan-and-mesh pattern crisply. A larger hook would loosen the lace and lose the firework effect.

How is the diamond shape formed?

You start with a small foundation (ch 4 plus 3 dc), increase on both sides until the scarf reaches your desired width, work straight through the even section for length, then decrease on both sides back down to a single stitch, creating the pointed oval/diamond ends.

Can I make the scarf wider or longer?

Yes. Continue the side increases until you reach the width you want, then add more pattern repeats in the even section to lengthen it before you begin decreasing. The shaping is driven by where you stop increasing.
