Simple Crochet Scarf Pattern

It was suggested after I posted a picture in twitter, by @PudseyCCC that I publish the pattern. I'm more than happy to oblige. However I'm a little embarrassed as the pattern is extremely simple. I've not written one down before, but let's give it a go.

I used a green 4 ply yarn with a 7mm hook. For me the chunkier the better! What you're doing is making a open chunky scarf then weaving a contrasting coloured yarn through it to decorate. I've used a funky looking 'fun' wool called Tutti Fruity for the decoration, but you could also use scraps of fabric sewn together or ribbon.

I was taught from books to start all my crochet projects with a foundation chain. You'll need a chain between a 160 and 260 chains long, depending on the length of scarf you're after. However have you tried a foundation treble foundation stitch? You're basically making your foundation and first row of stitches at the same time. I found out about it while searching for something on YouTube as I'm a self taught crocheter and I'm now a convert. If you've never tried it, give it a go (link to YouTube) If you make your first row this way, go to **

Once you have the desired length of chain, make a treble crochet stitch in the 5th chain from the end. You've now got two 'posts' on your foundation chain. In the next chain, make another treble crochet stitch and repeat to the end of the chain. You've just finished the first row.

**Make a four chain, turn, then a treble crochet stitch in the top of the row. Repeat to the end of the row. Complete between 7 and 11 rows, depending on how wide you'd like your finished scarf to be. Finish off and sew/weave in the ends of yarn.

You've now got a scarf which looks like this

With a contrasting coloured yarn, starting on the first row, weave the yarn through the crochet posts. When you get to the end, sew it in place. Carry on with the other rows until done and voila! You're finished!

What do you think? Let me know how you get on if you give it a go

  1. Hi there, i read your blog from time to time and i own a
    similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam responses?
    If so how do you protect against it, any plugin or anything you can suggest?
    I get so much lately it's driving me mad so any support is very much appreciated.
