I have found the perfect project for us to work on! I'll post photos when we're done.
(This pattern and more found over at Lacy Crochet.)
Since the stitch used for this scarf is hardly elaborate, it’s a good quality deluxe yarn that made all the difference. I used Plymouth Yarn® Baby Alpaca Worsted, which created a beautiful drapey fabric.
My scarf turned out warm and bulky, but personally I like that look. But if you’d prefer a slightly lighter version, try making this scarf with Plymouth Yarn® Baby Alpaca DK .
Skill Level: Easy
Materials: Baby Alpaca Worsted Glow yarn in Olive by Plymouth Yarn, 5 balls
Crochet Hook US size F (3.75 mm)
Shell in this pattern: (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc) all in same space.
Ch 58 loosely.
Ch 58 loosely.
Row 1: shell in 6th ch from hook, *ch 3, skip 5 ch, sc in next ch, ch 3, skip 5 ch, shell in next ch* across, skip 3 ch, dc in last ch.
Row 2: ch 6, turn; *sc in next shell, ch 3, shell in next sc, ch 3* across, end with sc in last shell, ch 3, dc in last dc.
Row 3: ch 3, turn; *shell in next sc, ch 3, sc in next shell, ch 3,* across, end with shell in next sc, dc into 3rd ch of turning ch-6.
Repeat Row 2 – Row 3 until your scarf measures about 65 inches. Fasten off, but leave a tail long enough to stitch the shorter ends of the scarf together.
Lay your scarf on a flat surface. Flip one side to form a twist. Stitch the shorter ends together using a tapestry needle. Wave in the ends.
That was a beautiful project you made during that moment. You will surely enjoy knitting and without a doubt, that your mother was happy seeing you knitting that project. Thanks for sharing this tutorial and your finished project. It turned out very nice and wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing at the Say G’day party. I’ve just pinned your post to the Say G’Day Saturday Board. It is winter here in Australia so I loved this gorgeous scarf!
