Free Pattern: Star Scarf


I love this stitch!  What a beautiful texture.  This Star Scarf was a Christmas present for my sister Julie.


Supplies: 1 skein medium weight yarn (I used Vanna’s Choice Linen.  The scarf is a little short, so you may want to get 2 skeins.)
Size 6mm hook (J/10) (Or whatever size is appropriate for the yarn you are using)

Abbreviations:
ch – chain,
hdc – half double crochet,
YO – yarn over

Pattern:

Ch 22
Row 1: Pull up a loop in the second ch from hook and in the following four chs, for a total of 6 loops on the hook.  YO, pull through all 6 loops on hook, ch 1 to close the star.  *Pull up a loop in the center of the star just created, pull up a loop in the last ch used in the previous star, pull up a loop in the next 3 chs, for a total of 6 loops on the hook.  YO, pull through all 6 loops on hook, ch 1 to close the star.* Repeat from * accross. Hdc in last ch.  Ch 2, turn.

Row 2: Three hdc in center of each star across (18 dc). Hdc in ch 2 space, ch 2, turn.

Row 3: Pull up a loop in the second ch from hook and in the next 4 hdcs, for a total of 6 loops on the hook.  YO, pull through all 6 loops on hook.  *Pull up a loop in the center of the star just created, pull up a loop in the last hdc used in the previous star, pull up a loop in the next 3 hdcs, for a total of 6 loops on the hook.  YO, pull through all 6 loops on hook, ch 1 to close the star.* Repeat from * across.  Hdc in last Hdc.  Ch 2, turn.

Repeat rows 2 and 3 until desired length. 

Last row:  Three hdc in center of each star across (18 dc). Hdc in ch 2 space, finish off. Weave in ends.

Fringe: Wrap yarn around four fingers (or any object the length desired for fringe) 36 times.  Cut through all 35 loops on the starting side.  Group three yarns together, pull a loop through center dc or ch for each star on each end.  Pull ends through the loop.  Trim fringe if needed.

  2. Just finished mine, it doesn't seem to be long enough to hide my hooks. I think I might add more rows of just plain or shells. Thanks for sharing this pattern. I look forward to seeing more of your projects as well.
