With a fun filet crochet pattern featuring subtle deer and tree designs, this long scarf will keep you warm for your woodland adventures. The deer and tree patterns making up the scarf are flipped in the middle so that they appear right-side up on the ends no matter how the scarf is wrapped around your neck. As a bonus, since its filet crochet this is a lightweight scarf despite its length!

Final size: 10” x 96 “(26 cm x 244 cm)

Materials

  • 504 m (550 yds) of worsted weight yarn for main scarf, 21 m (23 yds) of contrast color worsted weight yarn for tassels. The demo uses 2 balls of Forest Green by I Love This Yarn, and Sage Advice by I Love This Yarn for the tassels.

Stitches & Notes

US crochet terms. Each row of the chain starts with a stacked single crochet to prevent gaps on the scarf edges for a clean border. It is highly recommended to block the scarf so that every square has the same dimensions (~ 10”x12”, 36 cm x 31 cm)

  • Single crochet (SC)
  • Stacked single crochet (STSC)
  • Double crochet (DC)
  • Chain (CH)

Gauge: two rows of STSC, DC, (CH 1, DC) * 15, DC should measure 10”x2” (26 cm x 5 cm)
