Softly Softly My Dragonfly Scarf
Crochet Pattern (US & UK Terminology)
INTERMEDIATE LEVEL
Pattern Style: Written instructions with step-by-step photos and a reduced-section symbol-style graph.
Design Notes
This elegant scarf draws inspiration from my Dragonfly Tranquility Blanket. Instead of straight edges, the pattern gently weaves in and out, echoing the contours of the dragonfly motifs that dance across its length.
It features a pattern repeat using basic stitches, but careful attention to stitch placement is important for best results. While the stitches themselves aren’t difficult, a bit of concentration will help everything fall into place beautifully. This scarf is worked flat and in rows.. The edging and fringe at both ends is worked last.
What’s Included
Fully written pattern (in both US and UK crochet terms)
Step-by-step progress photos
Symbol-style graph showing a reduced section of the scarf
Note: The graph is designed to be used alongside the written pattern and images. While every effort has been made to ensure alignment, some slight drift may occur due to limitations in graphing software.
