S IMPLE CROCHET SCARF

This simple crochet scarf is made with a beautiful light

weight variegated yarn with deep blue shades.

This pattern is written using a 4ply yarn and a 3.5mm hook.

However, you can use this pattern to make a simple scarf

using whatever yarn you wish, all you need do is adjust the

number of stitches at the beginning, and then continue

until your work measures the length of scarf desired.

Similar to my other patterns have a play and have fun with

it. Once you get the hang of this simple pattern you can

make a variety of scarves with different yarns and various

hook sizes. For more ideas to play with, see MYO Make

Your Own on my website.

Before you begin:

read through the pattern to the end

select yarn and hook size

decide on the width of the scarf

calculate how many stitches you will need to

match the width

Special Note: If you are going to use a different yarn

weight and hook size you will need to calculate how many

stitches you will need to achieve your desired scarf width.

This pattern uses a V-stitch – to

calculate how many total stitches

you will need – the pattern formula

equates to multiples of 3 stitches

and then add 6 stitches e.g. 30

stitches (equals 10 V-sts) then add 6

stitches.

V-Stitch = 1dc, 1ch, 1dc in same ch

or sp.

In Row 1, V-st will be worked in

the same chain. In Rows 2

onwards, the V-st will be worked

in the same space.

Please Note: This is one variation of the V-stitch; you may

encounter other patterns that define a V-stitch differently.

Hint: Whenever I crochet the first row of any straight edge

garment I always like to use a hook one size large than

what I will be using for the rest of the piece. This way my

starting ch row has the same flexibility as my ending row.

H E R E ’ S T H E P A T T E R N :

Abbreviations:

Ch = chain, dc = double crochet; V-st = (1dc, 1ch, 1dc) in

same ch or sp; st/s = stitch/es; sp = space; ss = slip stitch.

Row 1:

Ch 48 sts; into 6th ch from hook *V-st [1dc, 1ch, 1dc] into

same ch, skip 2 ch, repeat from * to end; 1dc into last ch,

turn.

Row 2:

Ch3, *V-st into 1ch sp from previous row, repeat from * to

end, 1dc into top of ch3, turn.

Row 3-onwards:

Ch3, *V-st into 1ch sp from previous row, repeat from * to

end, 1dc into top of ch3, turn.

Continue in this manner until work measures 85” long (or

desired length).

Finish, hide ends.

You can embellish your scarf with whatever you wish –

buttons, crochet flowers, stars, or hearts, whatever? It’s

all up to you and your creative imagination!
