To get 8 inch squares, I added an extra "granny" row, and either a row of single or half double crochet, depending on the yarn. Some of this yarn is Red Heart, which required the single crochet edge, while the I Love This Yarn needed a half double crochet edge to make the same size.
To make her bow, I made rectangles of single crochet... 4 rows of 12 sc. Leave long ends to weave into the center, wrap around for the middle of the bow, and tie off at the back. Stitch into place.
Here's a picture of the scarf I made for my niece.
are you going to share your pattern?
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous! The link has been added. :)
ReplyDeleteso cute, Elizabeth! I'm glad you left the link to here on the pattern page. Are you making a blanket now? I love the surrounding colors.
ReplyDeleteHi Karin, These squares will be donated to Love Squared, and added to other donated squares to make blankets for homeless children. :)
ReplyDeleteKarin - I just realized that you are Made by K! Thanks for stopping by! Funny thing, I made the scarf to test the pattern for my college daughter. She is relatively new to crochet, and was nervous about following a pattern, but wanted to make scarves for the twin 4 yr old girls she babysits, for their Christmas gifts. The pattern was easy - although you do have to pay attention as you go - and it works up quickly. Thanks for sharing it on your site!
