Knitting Tension: 13 sts of wave pattern with 1 thread of each quality = 10 cm in the width.

Garter sts (back and forth on row): Knit all rows.

Wavy pattern: See diagram M.1. The diagram shows the pattern from the RS.

Scarf: Knit back and forth long-ways. Bend the circular needle double and cast on 195 sts on 2 needles size 7 mm with 1 thread of each quality (this is done to make the casting on edge more elastic). Remove 1 needle out and knit 2 rows of garter sts. Continue in M.1 with 4 sts of garter sts each side. When the piece measures approx 28 cm – adjust to 1 whole repeat in the height – knit 2 rows of garter sts before casting off very loosely – knit the first row of M.1 whilst casting off to make the casting off edge wavy too.
Crochet edge: Crochet an edge round the whole scarf with hook size 4.5 mm and 1 thread of each quality as follows: 1 dc in the first st, *4 ch, 1 tr in the first of the 4 ch ( = 1 picot), skip 2.5 to 3 cm, 1 dc in the following st*, repeat from *-* and finish with 1 picot and 1 sl st in the first dc from beg of round.
