I tried this with Boutique Changes yarn……it looks lacy and ok…..
I, too, was confused by the first row saying chain 2.
Thanks for the pattern and the help!

Hi Liz, on the second row you’re going to chain 1, then skip 1 chain, then make a double crochet into the double crochet stitch on the previous row (not the next chain). The chain stitches will go over the chains on the previous row and the double crochets will be made into the double crochets on the previous row.

Hey so I am loving this scarf but I’m a little confused cause where do you skip on row two and so on, is it after you ch one you skip one and then dc again in the next chain? Sorry im a little confused? Thank you!

Hi Robin, do you have 44 dc on row 1? If so, on row 2, you are basically making a dc in each of the dc on row 1, so you’ll have the same number stitches on each row. You’re not suppose to skipping any dc on row 1, which I think you may be doing. The chain that is between the dc stitches is what should be skipped.

I have been working on row 2, but I only have 24 dc because I skipped 1 chain after each dc. What am I doing wrong?

I have been waiting to get off of work all day so i can go pick up some yarn and make this scarf! It’s going to be a gift for my ‘secret santa’ at work. I’m just teaching myelf how to crochet using an old book my mom had and it’s been really fun practicing the different stitches but i’m ready to actually MAKE something. Can’t wait to try this. I’m loving your site! Thanks.

This is my favorite thing I’ve made so far! I used a Q hook, so the holes are a lot bigger, but it worked perfect with that big soft yarn, and it was still only one skein. LOVE it!

Melinda, it happens to all of us! I would suggest taking it out and redoing it, although it’s always a pain to do. You can add a border, but I don’t think it’ll fix the lopsidedness unless can make the border lopsided too to counter the part that is lopsided on the scarf.

I made this and after I was done noticed that it looks like I lost a stitch on the end and it is lopsided. Can I add a border to the end of it to make it look better, or should I tear it out and redo?
Thanks!

Hi Deborah, you don’t have to use fuzzy yarn. You can pick any yarn that has the “super bulky” weight symbol on the package. These yarns are thick so that scarf will work up nice and quickly.
