AlixaCrochet

Your First Crochet Scarf

Chunky yarn, one stitch, four to six hours.

What you need

About 250 m of chunky yarn, an 8 mm hook, scissors, a tape measure and a needle.

Step 1: Work the rows

Half double crochet in every stitch, chain 1 and turn. Count 16 stitches in every row.

Step 2: Keep the edges straight

Clip a stitch marker into the last stitch of each row so you never miss it or work it twice.

Step 3: Add fringe

Knot fringe onto both ends. It hides the first and last rows and gives the scarf a finished look.

Eight ways to change it

Stripes, pockets, a different stitch and more are in the full pattern.
