The Best Airy & Light Crochet Scarf For Spring

I recently tried this awesome new to me yarn to create a crochet scarf for spring! Its called Comfy Color Mist. When I was given a challenge to create something for a Spring Blog Hop I knew I wanted to use a cotton yarn.

I was instantly drawn to this Comfy Color Mist Yarn. There were so many colors that were perfect for Spring and best yet, it was a cotton yarn! If you have the chance to work with this yarn and enjoy working with cotton yarns then I think you’ll like this one.

I also want to thank We Crochet for providing the yarn in order for me to create this scarf design.

This scarf pattern is featured in the Spring Style blog hop hosted by Ned & Mimi – https://nedandmimi.com and Itchin’ for some Stitchin’ https://itchinforsomestitchin.com.

Pattern Details:

There are 2 fun features about this scarf. The first feature is the stitch that is used. The Y-stitch is what gives this scarf the open airy look and feel to it. If you have never worked a Y stitch before it is not very difficult at all. It is just a combination of a treble crochet, a chain stitch and a double crochet.

The Y-stitch can be used as a stand alone stitch in an entire design. It can also be used in stand alone rows that are separated by another crochet stitch. This spring scarf design uses the Y-stitches separated by a row of single crochet stitches.

You can find a full Y-stitch tutorial and explanation here – https://www.simplyhookedbyjanet.com/y-stitch-tutorial/ but below will also be a small stitch explanation.

The second feature that I really enjoy with this spring scarf is that it is worked slightly on the bias. Working the scarf this way adds a diagonal slant and look to the rows. This also adds a nice flow and point to each end of the scarf.

What does working in the bias mean? In this case that just means that on one end of a row there will be an increase added and on the opposite end a decrease added.

If you like this spring scarf that uses the Y-stitch then you may also like this Spring Shawl that also uses the Y-stitch. Check out the Premier Shawl here – https://simplyhookedbyjanet.com/premier-shawl-crochet-pattern/
