This is the latest pattern in my Slip Stitch crochet collection. It’s a scarf that begins at the tip with only a few stitches, & increases are made every four rows, & also uses short rows for shaping.

There are also optional directions for working “even” once you’ve reached your desired width.

It is made entirely of slip stitch crochet, & is rated intermediate - the pattern itself is quite easy, but the difficulty lays with keeping your tension nice & steady & loose.

You can use any weight or any type of yarn, but I do recommend a worsted, aran, or bulky weight yarn for best results. Use a larger than normal size crochet hook.

Thank you to my testers, pixie56, debspugs, Jerofitana, Elle76, & nlidano! And thanks to Tracie Barrett (http://traciebarrett.com) for her tech editing skills. You guys make me look good.
