Dorid is a skinny scarf worked flat in Garter stitch. It starts from one tip and continues toward to the other. Stitches are increased in the starting tip, then decreased in the ending tip to have a mirrored look. The ruffles are constructed with easy short rows, no special technique is required.
Elongated stitches occur because of this lack of a special technique, but these stitches give a decorative touch. Plain Garter rows are worked for the middle to create a better neck fit. I-cords are worked to polish the edges.
