Bonfire Fringe Scarf
Design by Marie Segares/Underground Crafter.
This striped scarf keeps you cozy against the chill of the night. The simple ripple pattern doesn’t use any complicated decreases, and there’s no need to weave in any ends because of the fringed edges.
Measurements
- The finished size is for an adult sized scarf: 55.5” (141 cm) long x 5.5” (14 cm) wide without fringe; 65” (165 cm) long with fringe.
- Gauge: 1 ripple (from valley to valley) = 2.5” (6.5 cm) across in pattern. Exact gauge is not critical for this project.
Skills Used
- Basic crochet stitches: chain, double crochet
- Crocheting flat in rows and changing colors
- Increasing and decreasing
- Pattern includes linked video and photo tutorials for crocheting with long foundation chains, changing colors, making fringe, and cutting fringe with a rotary cutter
