Who said winter crochet scarves need to be dull? The Color Pop Super Scarf Pattern by Alexandra Tavel is the exact opposite of that, featuring a beautiful, multicolored colorway and long, playful tassels. Worked with granny stitch clusters, it’s an easy project even for beginners. Its delightfully chunky fabric will keep you toasty warm during the colder months.
Yarn and Hook Required for This Project
This long scarf crochet pattern calls for bulky yarn. To achieve the best result, be sure to use yarn of the same weight, such as Lion Brand Hue + Me. It’s a good-quality blend of wool and acrylic with a nice soft texture. The designer used Peacoat, Rose Water, Love Song, and Arrowwood colors to create the sample visible in the photos. You will also need a 10 mm crochet hook.
Techniques You Need to Know
The Color Pop Super Scarf is a beginner-friendly pattern that uses the granny stripe stitch. It’s a simple technique that allows you to create fabulously colorful designs with double crochet clusters. To be able to work this handmade wrap, you should know how to read written crochet patterns and change yarn colors.
How Long Should My Crochet Scarf Be?
The general rule says that to achieve the best fit, your scarf should be the same length as your height or arm span. The original sample measures 12” x 82” (30.5cm x 208cm) without fringe.
You can, however, easily adjust this pattern to change the scarf size. To make it shorter, reduce your foundation chain by multiples of 3, since each set of 3 chains removes one cluster from the length.
