Crochet Birthday Scarf (and Free Pattern)

October 23, 2013 by jd wolfe

cro kln scarf 1 1013

I made this little scarf for my daughter’s birthday.  Sadly, from this picture, you cannot see its true color.  It’s a lovely dusty lavender that suits my daughter perfectly.  The yarn is a delight to work with and has a wonderful hand.  The pattern is simple enough, so I wrote it down for you.  It has not been tested.  Nor has the scarf been blocked.  I hate to block a fiber that is wool and silk for fear of taking away its softness.  Scroll down for the pattern and details.

 

Elsebeth Lavold  ‘Silky Flamme’ designer’s choice wool   50% peruvian wool, 30%FS Alpaca, 20% silk

50 grams(82 yards) scarf used about 100 yards (so 2 skeins)

8 mm hook (L 11)

Scarf is about 2 yards long by 3.5 inches wide (unblocked)

Ch 104
Dc in 4th ch from hook,{ sk 1, (dc, ch1, dc)] in next stitch (V stitch made), V stitch across to next to last stitch,
V stitch in next stitch, (you will have 5 V stitches in a row to create the round end
working in the back of beginning chain
V stitch in ch between V stitches of previous row, V stitch across and add additional V stitches to create rounded end, join with sl st in top of first V st
***
Ch 4, dc in same stitch,{ sk 1, V stitch in next st, picot in last dc of each V stitch (picot= ch 3, sl st in top of 2nd dc of V stitch)} – repeat V stitches and picots around both sides of scarf; fasten off.  weave in ends. 

Here’s a closer view of the stitch pattern for you.

Christmas Poinsettia Candle Cozy Crochet Pattern – A Pretty Little Holiday Make for Battery Tea Lights

If you love adding little handmade touches to your Christmas decorating, this Christmas Poinsettia Candle Cozy from CraftBits is such a pretty project. It is festive, eye-catching, and just the sort of small crochet make that can add a lovely pop of holiday color to a table, shelf, or mantel.

What I really like about this pattern is that it feels special without being overwhelming. It is a sweet seasonal project for dressing up battery tea lights, and the poinsettia design gives it that classic Christmas look that never gets old. It would be gorgeous as part of a holiday centerpiece or made up in a few sets for decorating around the house.

You might have seen this one featured on Crochet.CraftGossip before, and it is easy to see why it is worth another look. It is cheerful, decorative, and a lovely way to bring a little crochet into your Christmas styling without taking on a huge project.

If you are in the mood for a small festive make, this one is definitely a pretty pick.
