• Tapestry Needle
• Scissors
• Ruler or tape measure (optional)

• 3.5 inches wide
• 120 inches long

Abbreviations

Part One-Instructions for first flower:

Ch 4, join in the furthest ch from the hook with a sl st to create a ring.

Round 1: ch 4, then work (dc, ch 1) 11 times into the center of the ring.

Round 2: Slip stitch into the first space to get to the right spot, then ch 3. In the space work (3 dc, ch 1). *Slip stitch in the next space, then work (4 dc, ch 1) in the next space. Repeat from * to end of round and join to close round with a slip stitch in the chain at the base of the first petal.

Part Two-Instructions for second flower and every flower thereafter:

Note: each flower after the first flower is joined onto the scarf on round 2 using the join as you go method.

Ch 4, join in the furthest ch from the hook with a sl st to create a ring.

Round 1: ch 4, then work (dc, ch 1) 11 times into the center of the ring.

Round 2: Slip stitch into the first space to get to the right spot, then ch 3. In the first space work (3 dc, ch 1). *Slip stitch in the next space, then work (4 dc, ch 1) in the next space. Repeat from * until just two spaces remain. In the next space work 2 dc, then you’re ready to join your flower onto the previously made flower(s). Join into the previously made flower by working a slip stitch into the center of one the petals (in center of the 4 dc that make up each petal). Then work 2 more dc to complete the petal. Work a sl st into the last space, then join to close round with a slip stitch in the chain at the base of the first petal. If you’ve never done a project where you join as you go, I highly recommend checking out the video, where I do each part of the scarf step by step.

Repeat part two for the remaining flowers (see pictorial below) until the scarf is as long as you’d like for it to be (mine had a finished length of 120 inches). Weave in any ends that remain. If you like to block your scarf a little, proceed below for instructions.

If your flowers are looking a little curly, you can block them to flatten/straighten them out a bit.

If you used acrylic yarn, you can gently steam block you flowers

If you used natural fibers (wool, alpaca, bamboo, cotton, etc) you can steam block or wet block your pieces.
