Crochet Hooded Scarf

In the winter it’s exhausting trying to find your scarf, hat, or earmuffs each day. If only there was something you can just throw on that would keep your neck warm, ears covered, and hair from blowing away in the wind. What if there was one piece of clothing that would keep you warm while you’re out for hours in freezing temperatures? Well now there is with the crochet hooded scarf! This can easily be made at home with few tools and just a basic knowledge of crochet and sewing. Just knowing one stitch, one 1000 yard skein of yarn, and one lazy afternoon could save you from the cold winter weather!

1. Tools
2. 5 mm crochet hook
3. Yarn needle
4. Stitch markers
5. Materials
6. 6-6.5 mm yarn of your choice, I used the Caron Latte Cakes in Blueberry

1. CH 22
2. This will be the width of the scarf which will be the part covering your neck, so you can chain more or less to your liking
3. CH 2 and then turn your work
4. These chains are the first stitch in the row
5. DC in the back loop of every chain (after the first three including the ones you did in step 2)
6. Total stitches: 22 including the chains from step 2
7. CH 2 again to act as the first stitch in the next row; turn your work
8. DC in the back loop of every stitch from the previous row, skipping the first one
9. Total rows: 2
10. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until your scarf has a total of 140 rows, or as long as to your liking; add stitch markers at every 20 rows to help you keep track
