Yarn for the Easy Crochet Scarf

To crochet the Easy Crochet Shawl you’re going to need two yarn colors, 6 skeins of Chroma Worsted from We Crochet.

This self striping yarn is so warm & lovely to work with.

What I find the most exciting is all the colors you can choose from. Such as the gradient colorways & how they combine with the solid colors.

Easy Crochet Scarf - Free Crochet PatternCrochet Pattern Notes

  • This crochet pattern is written in US terms.
  • All measurements given are unblocked.
  • Note that measurements are given as exact as possible. But crochet tension & technique might give variations in the result, that changes from person to person.
  • Read pattern instructions carefully before beginning to make sure you understand everything. It might save you hours frogging your work & crocheting it again!
  • Make a swatch that measures at least 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4 inches using the stitch the gauge is given for. If your swatch matches the gauge, you’re good to go. If the gauge is wrong, you might need to change your hook. Go up in crochet hook size if your stitches are smaller & go down in crochet hook size if your stitches are bigger. Learn more about testing gauge.
  • Check yarn info if you want to find an alternative or test your yarn against the gauge. Learn more about substituting yarn.
  • This pattern is written for 1 size. Size adjustments are added under the heading “Sizes & Measurements”.
  • At the end of each row, the stitch count is given in parenthesis.
  • This wrap tends to curl while you crochet it. Because of that it is recommended to block it to shape.

Easy Crochet Scarf - Free Crochet PatternTechniques You Will Need

Change Yarn Color

When changing from one color to another, you’ll never finish the stitch with the color you where working with.

Do all the steps of the stitch, then leave the last step unworked. Yarn over with the color for the next st & pull yarn through.

Repeat this every time you change colors to make the color changes look beautiful.

Intarsia

To crochet intarsia means that you will work with 2 or more colors on the same row, but in separate sections. That means you don’t have to let the yarn you’re not working with follow along behind or inside the crochet stitch.

When you come to the place where you’ll change color. Move the working strand & skein to the front of the work & pick up the next color you will be working with.

Repeat the next time you need to change color.
