Scarf Pattern Notes
- Weigh your yarn cake: ________ grams
- Worked from side to side
- Because I am a tight crocheter I used the I crochet hook to chain with, so the chain isn’t too tight. This will also keep it from buckling. If you crochet loosely then you really shouldn’t have to go up a hook size when chaining. Rule of thumb always check your gauge.
- Chain 1 does not count unless otherwise stated.
- Chain 4 a beginning of rows counts as DC and Chain 1 space for next row
- Chain 5 (counts as first dc and chain 2 space for next row)
- If you decide to work with two colors you can fasten off each color or carry it up the side as it will be covered by the trim.
Special Stitches
- Cluster (CL): Yarn Over, insert hook in specified stitch and draw up a loop to height of a dc, Yarn Over and draw through 2 loops on hook; (Yarn Over, insert hook in next stitch and draw up a loop to height of a dc, Yarn Over and draw through 2 loops) 3 times; Yarn Over and draw through 5 loops on hook, (CL made)
- Hdc in 3rd Loop = With the front of the stitch facing you, look at the top of the stitch, and find the sideways “V”. Next, bend the stitch to look at the back, and you should see another “V”. You’ll be working into the back loop of that “V”, this is called the 3rd loop. When working across, like you are in the square the 3rd loop should be facing you.
