The leaves become the outer edge of the scarf. Add a border of slip stitches to keep the scarf edges from rolling and to provide a bit of definition to the leaves. Although simple, this edging technique takes a few minutes to master. Try it for a few rows on a practice swatch before you start the scarf.
