I have been busy crocheting up a storm, the latest charity project nearly done. I decided that I love the way it's coming out and thought you, my readers, would enjoy a simple pattern that sort of "stripes" up as you go. What I also like about it, mostly for beginner crocheters, is that it encourages counting -- simple counting that will aid in the learning crochet experience! And, the scarf is created out of the most basics of crochet stitches: the single crochet, half-double crochet and the double. Go ahead and give it a try! The scarf I have pictured will go towards the 60 Scarves in 60 Days drive that ends on November 30th
Subtle Stripe Scarf:

Materials:
Worsted Yarn (enough to create a scarf to your desired length)
Crochet Hook per yarn manufacturers recommendations (or to your satisifaction)
Tapestry needle
Pattern:
Ch 16
Row 1: Sc in 2nd ch from hook, and in next 4 ch, hdc in next 5 chs, dc in remaining 5 stitches. (15 sts)
Row 2: Ch 1, turn work, sc in ea dc st, hdc in ea hdc st, dc in each sc st. (15 sts)
Repeat Row 2 to desired length. The scarf will work up looking like a subtle row was added in the middle. Enjoy -- it works up very fast! :)

Dee,
I used your pattern and it went great:) I would do 10 rows then change colors. It went very quickly, it took me maybe 6 hours to finish one:) Thanks for the great pattern! Still your student, Sherri
Thanks for the pattern. I am in a scarf mood these days and will surely use this one for my next scarf. -- Sandie Petit, Crochet Cabana
