Spes scarf
Spes was the ancient Roman goddess of hope.
The Spes Scarf is worked from one tip to the other. The scarf is knitted in a classic feather and fan lace cable pattern. The edges are knitted with slipped stitches that look like an i-cord. The length of the scarf can easily be modified. Just keep adding more pattern repeats for a longer or a wider scarf.
