Lately I have been trying to make an effort to use up some of the yarn in my stash. I love having a yarn stash on hand but it was starting to get a little out of control and I felt like I needed to use some of it up before getting more yarn.
A few weeks ago I made my Picot Edged Scarf using some really pretty Chroma Twist yarn from WeCrochet and I had a little less than one full ball left over. I decided to use it to make another scarf, this time a cowl/circle scarf style with a little more open stitch pattern.
The stitch that I used is a grid type stitch that remind me of window panes, but with double rows in between each square. It is made of a combination of single and double crochet and chain stitches. It is a really easy 2 row repeat.
Because of the simple repeat it would be easy to make this scarf longer so it can wrap multiple times around the neck, or shorter so it is more of a snug cowl style. Since I was working with a single ball of yarn I just made mine as long as the yarn I had to work with let me. It is just long enough to wrap double around my neck.
How to Crochet a Double Pane Scarf
You will need:
- Worsted Weight Yarn (Sample made with Chroma Twist in Fathoms)
- I crochet hook (5.5mm)
- yarn needle
- scissors
Instructions:
stitch repeat is multiple of 4 + 3
ch 31
Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in next ch, [ch 2, sk next 2 ch, sc in next 2 ch] repeat to the end (16 sc, 7 ch sp)
Row 2: ch 3 (counts as first dc), turn, dc in next sc, [ch 2, sk next 2 ch, dc in next 2 ch] repeat to the end (16 dc, 7 ch sp)
Row 3: ch 1, turn, sc in first 2 stitches, [ch 2, sk next 2 ch, sc in next 2 ch] repeat to the end (16 sc, 7 ch sp)
Repeat rows 2 and 3 until you reach the desired length for your scarf
Once you have the length you want finish off and use a yarn needle to sew the two short ends together, weave in all ends
