Is It a Beginner-Friendly Crochet Scarf Pattern?
The Ocean Breeze Scarf with Fringe Pattern is a simple project manageable for upper beginners. It uses one simple stitch throughout the whole design and doesn’t involve any color changes as it is made with self-stripping yarn. The stitch you will be using is half double crochet in the back loops, which creates a warm, knit-like texture perfect for a crochet winter scarf.
Yarn Recommended for This Crochet Project
If you want to achieve a fabulous multicolored effect, choose cake yarn such as Caron Cotton Cakes. It’s a soft blend of cotton and acrylic that features beautiful color transitions.
The designer used Beachglass colorway, but you can go for any other color palette that suits your style. To complete this crochet scarf pattern, you will need approx. 3 skeins (211 yds/193 m) of worsted-weight yarn.
How Can I Adjust the Size of My Crochet Scarf?
This handmade scarf project is worked lengthwise, which means that the number of stitches in the foundation chain determines its length. To make it longer, add more chains in the starting row, and to make it shorter, reduce their number.
Adjusting the width of this crochet scarf is even easier – simply continue working the same rows until it is wide enough for you. You can also decide how long you want the fringe to be by cutting shorter or longer yarn pieces.
The sample scarf visible in the photos is 75″ (190 cm) long, excluding the fringe, and 8.5″ (22cm) wide.
