 |
Finished Size: as long and wide as you desire
|
Materials: Medium Weight Yarn (approximately 250 yards) Crochet Hook N (10.00 mm) |

Gauge: is not that important. The scarf created in the photo uses a large hook so that it is easier for beginners to see the stitches. It also minimizes curl.
Special Stitches Used: Tunisian Knit Stitch (tks)
Crochet Pattern: Scarf
Start by chaining 12 or as wide as you want your scarf
Row 1: tks in second ch from hook and in each ch across
Row 2: tsk in second st from hook and in each st across
Repeat row 2 until scarf is as long as you desire.

Very pretty stitch. I’ll have to try it. Have you ever done the herringbone stitch? Herringbone half-double crochet.
I haven’t tried it, but I’ll look into it
Scarves are my favorite way to practice stitches. Thanks so much for this, I’ll be linking.
I have never seen this stitchet I had to try it rightl away I liked it
well I’m looking forward to see if you put Donnas pattern she
asked about the herringbone stitch,would love to see that.
Thanks for sharing
Hi Rachel, my last row looks “open”. i tried to slip stitch between the stitches on the previous row but it forms a ridge
pls help!
To finish off you make slip stitches in the stitches that you would normally pull up a loop in just like in Tunisian simple stitch. The number of slip stitches you make will be one less than the number of loops that are normally on your hook during the forward pass.
I think the ridge you’re referring to are the “V’s” made by the slip stitch. But that’s normal and it may seem as if it’s on the front of your work, but that’s because it’s curled. Try blocking it when you’re done.
I found your pattern last week. I went out and bought afghan hoof and some yarn – I just love it!
Can you tell me how to keep my scarf from rolling/curling?
Hi Cindi, here is post “Why Tunisian Crochet Curls and How to Get Rid of It” that will explain it.
