"Hello, The pattern says chain 23 and DC in the second chain from the hook for 22 stitches across. Hmm. Do you mean in the first chain from the hook? Otherwise, you would have 21 stitches across. Can you please clarify? Also, I think this scarf will be wider than 4 1/2 inches across. Thank you, Lisa"
