Sweet Tea… in Italia!

Italy, Amazing Food, Love and Wine Y'all!

The Original Beginner’s Ribbed Scarf Pattern:

Materials Needed:

  • #4-Medium / Worsted weight yarn. (Approx: 220 yards)
  • J-10, 6mm crochet hook
  • Tapestry needle for weaving ends.

Gauge: Gauge is not very important for this pattern.

Abbreviations

  • ch = chain
  • sc = single crochet
  • st(s) = stitch(s)
  • BLO = Back Loop Only
  • beg = beginning
  • * to ; = repeat * to the instructions.

Note: beg ch does not count as a st.

ch 176+1 (or any number of stitch + 1)

Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from the hook, sc in each st across, turn. (176 sts total)

Row 2: working in BLO, ch 1, sc in each st across, turn. (176 sts total)

Row 3 to 18+: repeat row 2. Fasten off and weave the ends. For the fringe, I cut 10″ yarn pieces to make about 5″ long fringe.


I used: a 25% Alpaca, 27% wool, 48% Acrylic blend that is made here in Italy. 150gr 300m.

This called for a 6.5-7.5 hook, I chose to use a 7.

I made this scarf for my friends birthday, I chained 170 and around 30 rows.

I also went for a scalloped border and not the fridge.

For the scalloped border, I dc 1, followed by 3 sc and dc into every other sc.

This is one of the first times I ever tried to read a pattern….. I’m not sure if my finished version is like what it is supposed to look like, or if I just went with it.

Hey, this is how we learn!
