Beginner Patterns Crochet Patterns Scarves

Super Simple Super Soft Super Scarf Pattern

This crochet super scarf pattern works length-wise, rather than along the width, to create a scarf with beautiful long lines and rich texture! It is super easy (using only double crochet), so it is great for beginners and it is quick to work up using size 5 yarn and a P hook. This is a perfect item to sell at craft fairs (I did so myself) and also makes a quick and impressive handmade gift! Although, you might have a hard time giving it away since it is so squishy!

Origin of the Pattern

This is a pattern I threw together just for myself a year or so ago. I created it so I had a quick, easy and popular basic scarf to sell at craft shows. I didn’t consider publishing it since I figured there’s probably a few out there like it already. Like I said, it’s pretty basic. But then I decided I needed to write it down, since I loved the scarf and didn’t want to forget how I’d done it. And then I figured, if I’m going to the trouble if writing it down, I might as well write it down on my blog!

I also thought it would be a nice companion pattern to go along with my stitch tutorial for the Foundation Double Crochet Stitch that I had been planning. I love foundation stitches because they are such time savers! Since they are some of my favorite stitches, I use them in a lot of my patterns, so I thought I should write out a tutorial to go with my patterns. I’m happy to say that the video tutorial for the Foundation Double Crochet is up and running! You can find it HERE. This super scarf pattern is a perfect practice piece for the stitch tutorial  since it runs length-wise instead of across the width, making a nice loooong row of foundation stitches. So, if you haven’t mastered the foundation double crochet, this is a fantastic pattern to practice with!

The Yarn For This Pattern

My favorite yarn to use for this pattern is Loops & Threads Charisma yarn. This pattern is great because it uses thick yarn, so it works up quickly. However, thick yarn that is nice and squishy tends to be more pricey. I’ve noticed Michael’s seems to regularly put their Charisma Yarn on sale for $2.50 each! This pattern takes 3 skeins of Charisma yarn (not counting fringe… sometimes I seem to have enough for fringe and sometimes not… but the pattern looks great with contrasting fringe if needed). I figure $7.50 is an amazing price for a super scarf!

Be aware though that not all the Charisma yarns seem to be equal. You’ve got to do the squish test before throwing them in your cart! I have personally found the marble, tweed and heather skeins (in most colors) to be extremely soft and perfect for a squishy scarf. Other types did not feel as soft to me.

      Hi Jill, In the photo I used Red Heart soft, which is a size 4 yarn. I have also used the same size 5 yarn as I used for the scarf, if I had enough left over. Just depends on which you prefer :).
