You can use any yarn and hook to make this project!
With the yarn and hook you’ve chosen for the project, chain until you reach the length you’d like for your scarf (shawl, or blanket); or chain until your length measures 60 inches.
Check that your number of chains can be divided by 2 evenly (to match the stitch multiple), then add 1 more chain.
Follow the pattern as written.
Continue crocheting until your project is the width you would like it to be, or until it measures approximately 6 inches wide.
