The first edge is worked first, then, scarf-body stitches are picked up from there; then you knit the body of scarf for desired length; and after binding off, you work the final edge, and sew it on. There are written as well as charted directions in this pattern, thus, giving you the ease in knitting up this delicate scarf. It can be knitted with any weight yarn as long as the needles are appropriate to the weight of yarn. Happy knitting!
