Scarlett in Cursive

Start with the capital S: a tall loop that rises to the top and curves back down into a rounded body, closing with a small loop on the baseline. The S does not join: lift the pen after it and start the c with its own entry stroke. The c is a small open curve that starts just below the midline and swings down to the baseline; it runs from the baseline straight into the a. The a is an oval closed at the top, then a downstroke on its right side that exits at the baseline; it runs from the baseline straight into the r. The r is a short upstroke to the midline, a tiny shoulder to the right, then a downstroke to the baseline; it runs from the baseline straight into the l. The l is a tall loop that returns to the baseline; it runs from the baseline straight into the e. The e is a small loop drawn from the baseline up through the midline and back down; it runs from the baseline straight into the t. The t is a short upstroke and a downstroke back to the baseline, with its crossbar added later, and the double t is written as one movement. The second t follows without a lift and finishes the word.

When the word is finished, go back and cross the t. A common slip in Scarlett is skipping the shoulder of r, which turns it into a stray upstroke.
