Loopy Ridges Scarf - Crochet Scarf

The loopy Ridges at Regular Intervals

The Crochet bug got into me and I picked up quite a few books from our library. I had taken a liking for Scaves as I can use them in my dailywear as the climate had turned cold now. "Hooked Scarves" by Margaret Hubert had some interesting easy patterns to try from. One of them is the Loopy Ridges Scarf.

Rows of Loops give this scarf a trendy ruffled look, and is soft and warm. It is easy to crochet and has just single and double crochet. I used knitting worsted medium(4) yarn and size H hook. I choose a berry colour of Soft Red Heart Yarn.

The Pattern from Hooked Scarves is as follows :

GAUGE: 15dc = 4" (10cm) on H Hook.

SCARF Foundation Row: Ch 23. Starting from the 5th chain from the hook, work 1 dc in each ch (19dc), ch 1 , turn. Row 1: (WS)  Work 1 sc in the first stitch * ch 7, 1sc tbl in each of the next 2 sc, rep from * 8 times more, ch7, 1sc in the top of the tch, ch1, turn (10 loops). Row 2: Work Sl st in the first st, ch 3 (count as dc now and throughout),  dc tbl in each of the next 18sts, 1dc in top of the tch (20dc), ch 3 turn. Row 3: Skip  first dc, working on both loops , work 1 dc in each of the next 18dc, 1 dc in the top of tch, ch 3, turn. Row 4: Skip first dc, working on both loops , work 1 dc in each of the next 18dc, 1 dc in the top of tch, ch 1, turn.. Rep  rows 1-4 till the desired length is reached , end with row 2, fasten off. Weave in ends.

Its only Single and Double Crochet!!

 Now I am trying to find patterns  to crochet some beautiful flower doillies and knit my husband a scarf to go with his coat.
