Is the Seven Wonders Scarf Beginner-Friendly?
This crochet scarf pattern is a great option for beginners because you can work it using only a basic set of stitches. It’s also a great entry point for those looking to try their hand at lacework.
The pattern uses Seven Wonders Lacy Stitch – a simple open-style stitch created with a unique combination of chains, single crochets, and half double crochets. Thanks to Crochetpedia’s easy-to-follow video tutorial, every newbie crocheter can learn this stitch with ease!
What Type of Yarn Works Best for This Crochet Scarf?
When making crochet shawls and scarves, we want them to be soft, warm, and drapey. The Garnstudio DROPS Alpaca has all these qualities. It’s a sport weight yarn that offers a great drape and nice stitch definition, while 100% alpaca wool fiber content ensures an incredibly soft fabric you will love to wrap around your neck.
How the Seven Wonders Scarf Is Worked
The Seven Wonders Crochet Scarf is worked widthwise, which means that the number of stitches in the foundation chain determines the width of your project. To make your scarf wider or narrower, simply chain a multiple of 3 + 2 stitches.
After completing the foundation chain, work 4 rows of half double crochets to form the border – you will add the same 4 rows when finishing your work.
The 5 and 6 rows are crocheted using the lacy stitch pattern, and you will continue working these two rows until your scarf has the desired length.
How Many Colors Do I Need for the Scarf?
Use the color scheme suggested by the designer or go for one that matches your outfits. The sample visible in the photos features 7 different shades that create smooth color transitions, but you can use as many hues as you want. Consider alternating two contrasting colors, or if you don’t particularly like changing yarn colors, select self-striping yarn with a beautiful gradient colorway.
