Crocheted Child’s Scarf
Collaborating this month with a lovely group of Bloggers to bring you some new craft ideas. For the February Craft Destash we were challenged to create a project using only items currently found in our craft stash. We were to make something new with crafty supplies or re-make an item we’ve been holding on to for a while. For this challenge I decided to make a crocheted child’s scarf.
I found some yarn on clearance last year at Hobby Lobby for $1.62. It’s called Soft Illusion and it’s some of the softest yarn I have ever felt. And it is such a pretty mix of pastel colors. I really wanted to make a blanket with it but there was only 3 skeins. Not enough for a blanket 😥 So I decided to make this little scarf for my grandbaby. It is really easy and doesn’t take much time at all!
Materials:
About 90 yards super bulky yarn
Size k crochet hook
Button to match yarn color
ch Chain
sc Single Crochet
hdc Half Double Crochet
dc Double Crochet
Directions:
Chain 77
Row 1: sc in 2nd chain from hook and every chain across (76 sc); ch 2 and turn
Row 2: In first sc (1sc, 1hdc, 1dc), skip next 2 stitches, *in next stitch (1sc, 1hdc, 1dc), skip next 2 stitches; repeat from * until you reach the end of the row; sc in last stitch; ch2 and turn
Rows 3-6: repeat row 2; at the end of row 6, ch 1
Row 7: sc in each stitch then fasten off
If desired, add a button to one end of the scarf about 5 inches from the end.
The finished scarf is about 27 inches long and 4 inches wide.
