Instructions

The First Ribbing

Ch 7.

Row 1: Sc 1 in 2nd ch from hook, sc 1 in next and across to end of row, turn (6).

Row 2: Ch 1, blosc 1 in 1st st from hook, and across to end of row.

Row 3-27: Repeat row 2.

Scarf Body

Turn your work horizontally; you now have 27 stitches.

Row 1: Ch 1, dc 1 in 1st st from hook, dc 1 in next st and across to end of row (27).

Row 2: Ch 1, sc 1 in 1st st from hook, *[Bpdc in next st, sc 1 in next]* repeat from *to* to end of row (finishing with sc in last st), turn (27).

Row 3: Ch 1, dc 1 in 1st st from hook, dc 1 in next and across to end of row, turn (27).

Rows 4-102: Repeat rows 2 and 3 changing colors if you wish; I changed twice for a light green stripe.

When you reach your desired length for the scarf, we will add the second ribbing at the end. Do not cut yarn.

The Second Ribbing

We are going to work the second ribbing out and back from the scarf.

Start at the end of the last row, Ch 7, sc 1 in 2nd ch from hook, sc 1 in next and to the end (towards the scarf body), Slst in next 2 st (this attaches the ribbing to the scarf), turn.

Row 2: Ch 1, blosc 1 back into the ribbing, blosc 1 on 1st ribbing st and on each st, turn (6).

Row 3: Ch 1, blosc 1 in 1st st and across to end of row (6), slst in next 2 st (on the scarf), turn (6).

Row 4-27: Repeat row 2 and 3.

Cut your yarn and weave in the ends. Block before using.
