Mixed-yarn 'Christensen' skinny scarf (brown colorway)
Lion Brand® Homespun® - Lion® Suede - Fancy Fur
GAUGE: 9 sts + 10 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] in single crochet through back loops. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
NOTES:
Alternate Colorway ('Autumn')
 |
Autumn Colorway
A: Landscapes 279 Deep Sea
B: Homespun #364 Mexicana

Editor’s Note: When creating fringe using Homespun please note that because of the texture of the yarn the fringe will fray when cut. If you prefer a non-frayed look you can knot the ends,
knit or
crochet a fringe, or use hairspray or fray check.

| I LOVE this pattern! I've done it a variety of ways, using many different types of yarn. One of my favorites was using an alpaca blend, a fun fur and a thin suede. I've made it narrow, I've made it wide. I've many it multi-colored, I've made it mono-chromatic. I've followed the pattern and I've made up my own using 2 or more types of yarns. It's fun to introduce this pattern to beginner crocheters. They look at it and think it's beyond them. Once I explain it's only single crochet, their minds are opened to a whole new world of possibilities. It's also a fantastic way to use up bits and pieces of leftover yarn!! :o)
