Crochet Pattern: Sammy’s Ridged Scarf
As cooler weather begins to roll in here, I always worry about whether my kids are warm enough or not. Some mornings are just colder than others. I also like to keep several sets of gloves, scarves, and hats in the house so everyone has options on how they want to accessorize and stay warm. This one is my oldest son’s favorite scarf. He picked out the yarn and the stitch texture that he wanted, and when it was all said and done, he absolutely loved it. (Hence the name of the pattern.)
This is an Intermediate level pattern. It requires knowledge of some stitches that aren’t commonly used, but are relatively easy to master. I have included a key with the full stitch name so they can be searched easily on Youtube for a how-to video to make the stitch, if needed.
If you use a brand new skein of the suggested yarn and the suggested hook, this scarf will measure approximately 6 inches wide and 60–65 inches long when complete. This does not include the fringe, if you decide to add that as well.
Materials Needed:
Hook: 4.25 mm (G) hook
Yarn: 590 yards (1 Cake) Lionbrand Mandala Cake, 100% Acrylic, #3 Weight Yarn
Color: Spirit
Stitch Knowledge Needed:
CH — Chain
ST — Stitch
SC — Single Crochet
DC — Double Crochet
FPTC — Front Post Treble Crochet
Special Stitches:
FPTC = YO, YO, Insert Hook from Front to Back, between the posts of last and next sts; bring hook around back of post of the next st and to the front. YO, Draw up a loop around the post, YO again and draw through two loops on hook, YO and pull through two loops on hook, and YO and pull through last two loops on hook. Do not work the stitch behind the FPTC.
Pattern:
Chain 31. (An odd number of sts + 2)
Row 1: 1 DC in 4th chain from hook. Continue to DC in every chain until the end of the row. Turn your work.
Row 2: Ch 1. Skip the first stitch. SC in every stitch to end of row. SC in top of turning chain. Turn your work.
Row 3: Ch 3. Skip the first stitch. * For next stitch, reach below the SC to the DC row below. FPTC around the DC post. DC in the following SC. Repeat from the * to end of row. DC in the turning chain. Turn your work.
Row 4: Repeat Row 2.
Row 5: Ch 3. Skip the first stitch. * DC in the next SC. For the following SC, FPTC around the DC of the row below the SC. Repeat from the * to end of row. For last two stitches, DC in next to last stitch, then FPTC around the turning chain of the DC row below the SC.
Repeat Rows 2–5 until scarf is the desired length.
Bind off and weave in ends.
