Materials Needed

• Yarn: Worsted weight yarn in the following colors:
  • Forest Green
  • Deep Plum
  • Soft Lavender
• Hook: 5.5 mm crochet hook
• Gauge: 14 stitches and 16 rows = 4 inches in pattern stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Row: Begin by making a foundation single crochet (FSC) of 180 stitches. To do this, create a slip knot on your hook, yarn over, pull through the slip knot to create the first stitch, then yarn over and pull through both loops on the hook. Repeat this until you have 180 stitches.
2. Row 1: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet), then double crochet (dc) in each foundation single crochet across the row. Once you reach the end, turn your work.
3. Row 2: Chain 1, then single crochet (sc) in the first double crochet. Now, *chain 1, skip the next double crochet, and single crochet in the next double crochet; repeat from * across the row. When you reach the end, turn your work.
4. Row 3: Chain 3 (counts as your first double crochet), then double crochet in each single crochet and chain-1 space across the row. Once you reach the end, turn your work.
5. Repeat Rows 2-3: Continue to repeat Rows 2 and 3 until the scarf measures 10 inches wide. Make sure to measure from the beginning of your work to ensure accuracy.
6. Finishing Touch: To give your scarf a polished look, finish with a row of crab stitch (reverse single crochet) along each short edge. To do this, insert your hook into the stitch, yarn over, pull through, yarn over again, and pull through both loops on your hook. Repeat this for each stitch along the edge.
7. Final Steps: Once you have completed the crab stitch border, fasten off your yarn by cutting it and pulling it through the last loop. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle to keep your work neat and tidy.

Congratulations! You have now completed your very own Mystic Meadow Crochet Foundation Scarf. This beautiful piece will not only keep you warm but will also add a touch of elegance to any outfit. Enjoy wearing your creation or gifting it to someone special!
