Crochet Simple Scarf

Materials:

4 balls of Stylecraft Merry-Go-Round yarn, XL size, in the colorway Fruit Salad (400 grams total)
10mm crochet hook
Scissors

Pattern Instructions:

Starting the Scarf:

Slip Knot:

Begin with a slip knot.
Cross the yarn over itself to create a loop, then pull a strand through the loop forming a pretzel shape.
Adjust the knot to your crochet hook's width.

Chain 22:

For a standard width, chain 22.
This should measure about 11.5 inches long.
This will be the width of your scarf.
You can adjust the number of chains if you prefer a narrower or wider scarf.

Creating the Scarf Body:

Row 1 (Half Double Crochet - HDC):

Start by yarning over (YO), then inserting the hook into the third chain from the hook.
YO again and pull through the chain, YO again and pull through all three loops on hook.
This is your first HDC.
Repeat the HDC in each chain across.
By the end of this row, you should have 20 half double crochets.

Rows 2-80:

Chain 2 (turning chain), turn your work. YO, and make a HDC into the first stitch. Continue with HDC in each stitch across.
Repeat this step until you've completed 80 rows, or the scarf reaches your desired length, typically around 65 inches.

Changing Yarn:

Joining New Yarn:

If you run out of yarn, simply tie the end of your old yarn to the start of the new yarn with a secure knot. Trim any excess yarn close to the knot to keep your work neat.

Finishing the Scarf:

Weaving in Ends:

Once you've reached the desired length, cut your yarn, leaving about a six-inch tail. Yarn over and pull through the loop on your hook to secure the end.
Using a yarn needle or your crochet hook, weave this tail back and forth through the stitches on the wrong side of the scarf to hide it.
