The Bardot scarf is a rectangular scarf, started at the middle and worked outwards towards the edges. The edges are folded double and sewn loosely in place to prevent the edges from rolling.
You can work the scarf in two colors or add different colors for each stripe, making it a good stash buster project. The size of the scarf is easy to modify, just make fewer or more repeats of the increases to get the size you want.
