The early days of spring can be tricky. Still chilly but not quite cold enough for a thick and cozy scarf. I’ve put together a collection of crochet scarves that would be perfect for milder days that are still a bit cool and breezy. These designs were contributed by fellow designers in the crochet community and are all made using DK or sock weight yarn so they’re light, airy and perfect for spring. Oh….did I mention they’re also free?

I love a one skein project, especially when the yarn is self striping. I had a single Caron Cake sitting on my yarn shelf and thought it would look great as a scarf made using a simple v-stitch. I chose to let the colour transition happen naturally but you might choose to cut and rejoin the yarn in a more natural place, such as the beginning of a row.
This pattern uses only one stitch throughout so it’s an easy one to put down and pick up again. My testers told me they found relaxing and enjoyable to work on which is always great in a project.

The Cozy Stitch Scarf is here, just in time for the cool autumn weather and upcoming winter season. Made with bulky weight and faux fur yarn, it works up quickly with two simple stitches. Bulky yarn is always nice to work with because it usually works up fast due to the larger stitch size. It’s also super squishy and cozy!
This scarf has a beautiful drape and the faux fur accents on the end add a fun appearance. The length can be easily shortened or lengthened based on your preference by decreasing or increasing the row count.

Love a one skein, one stitch project? This pattern is for you! If you’re a beginner, this easy scarf pattern is an excellent way to make a practical project while practicing your tension and stitch work. For more seasoned or intermediate crocheters, this pattern is a great way to work through your yarn stash and can offer a break if you’ve been working on designs that need more attention and focus. Add them to your market table or make a few for family, friend and teacher gifts.
It looks great in one colour but a self striping yarn is also a great option (I used Lion Brand Mandala Ombre). If you know how to chain and can make a half double crochet stitch, you’re set! Find the free pattern below…

When I think back to my early days of learning crochet, I remember how badly I want to learn more than the simple chains, swatches and granny squares. It was with that in mind that I created the Beginner Double Crochet Scarf. The end result is a practical project that uses the basic stitches (chains, single crochet and double crochet) and would make a wonderful wearable item for you or a friend.

Introducing the Simple Stitch Skinny Scarf. By the name of the pattern, you can probably guess that this isn’t an overly complicated design. In fact, this pattern is so simple that it’s perfect for working on while watching a movie or when you need a break from larger projects.

Are you a fan of the suzette stitch? It’s one of my favourites to use within patterns and such a great way to expand on the basic stitches. If you can make the single crochet and double crochet, you can do the suzette stitch!
This fun scarf pattern makes use of colour blocking for a fun and eye catching design. The striped sections are a great opportunity to use up leftover skeins from your stash! Which colours would you use?

Free crochet pattern coming your way! Although it’s August and we’ve had some recent heat waves, I can feel the mornings changing. That cool, crisp and refreshing air early in the morning as autumn begins to creep in. I absolutely love it. Summer is lovely but it’s never been my favourite. Autumn is a time of change, all things cozy and the perfect opportunity to dig out my cardigans and box of handmade scarves.
Inspired by the recent cool mornings, the Loops and Ridges scarf came about quite naturally as I was playing around with stitch combinations. This scarf is full of texture and cozy with a simple but fun sectioned repeat. I used WeCrochet Heatherly in the beautiful “Sweet Bing” colourway to make this lovely and eye catching project.
