PATTERN NOTES
Gauge is not super important for this design. Simply check that the length of the scarf will comfortably wrap around your head twice after completing round 1. You may choose to add extra length to your desire, just increase the number of fsc stitches in rnd 1.
If the number comes before the abbreviation for example: 2hdc, this means stitch the given number into the same stitch. If the number is given afterward, for example: hdc2, this means to half double crochet the given number over subsequent stitches.
Double check your stitch counts at the end of each row or round.
