VELVET CROCHET SCARF
WHAT YOU’LL NEED
Yarn: Worsted weight velvet yarn (#4 medium) in color of choice. Approximately 420 yards.
Hook: Size G/6 (4.00 mm) or size needed to obtain gauge.
Notions: Tapestry needle, measuring tape.
SIZING AND GAUGE
Size: Approximately 4.5” wide and 68” long.
Gauge: approximately 20 stitches and 9 rows = 4” x 4” in ribbing pattern. Stitches should be tight enough to prevent yarn from worming. See explanation of worming in notes.
PATTERN NOTES
Notes:
- Beg chs of rows do not count as sts.
- To make a wider scarf, adjust the base chain by adding stitches in multiples of 4.
- Note that a wider scarf will require more yarn if you want to achieve the same length.
- Scarf is crocheted with a smaller hook and tighter gauge to prevent the yarn from worming.
- Worming is when loops of yarn pull away from the fabric, and it can commonly happen with velvet yarns. Using a smaller hook, tighter gauge, and front and back post sts as in this pattern all help to prevent worming.
