This scarf uses the shell stitch, which will be rewritten in the pattern so that it doesn’t just say: Shell Stitch in next 8 sts. No. It’s going to be written as *dc 5 in same st, skp 2, sc 1, sc 2* around. Just letting you know. This scarf is a very textured one. It took me a lot longer than the other ones, probably because I was using a smaller hook, but anyway, lets get on into it.
Note: If you were to resize the yarn (width-wise) you would have to, for your foundation, you would have to chain a multiple of six plus one (e.g. 36+1 – 37. 42+1 – 43.)
Materials:
- 3 colors of your choice, A, B, and C.
- 3mm/D hook
- darning needles
Abbreviations:
- dc – double crochet
- sc – single crochet
- skp – skip
- sk – slip knot
- fd – foundation
- rw# – row number(e.g. rw1 would be row one)
- rws# – row numbers(e.g. rws2-200 would be rows two through two-hundred)
- rpt – repeat
The Pattern:
In color A
fd – ch 37
rw1 – dc 3 in fourth chain from the hook, *skp 2, sc 1, skp 2, dc 5 in same st* rpt around
Note: At the end of every row, you will end on a single crochet. Do NOT do another five double crochet.
rws2-10 – rpt rw1
change to color B
rws 11-20 – rpt rw1
change to color C
repeat in this fashion until you have 200 rows.
