Baby Bean Stitch Scarf Pattern
When you purchase through links on my site, I may earn an affiliate commission.
Here’s how it works.
This Crochet Baby Bean Stitch Scarf is a beautifully textured project that takes less than a ball of yarn to crochet! The project is worked widthwise, back and forth in rows, following a very easy one row repeat. You’ll be amazed at how quickly this scarf works up! I think you’ll love the woven-look and finished texture this puff stitch creates.

BONUS: You can make this scarf with any yarn and hook combination you have on hand.
Be sure to check my “You can use any yarn and hook to make this project!” section at the end of the post. I explain how you can use any yarn and hook to make your project. Plus, you can make this in any size, just by changing the number of starting chains, or the number of rows you crochet.

Baby Bean Stitch
- Insert your hook into the specified stitch (or stitch space) yarn over and pull up one loop (2 loops on the hook), yarn over the hook and insert your hook into the same specified stitch (or stitch space), yarn over and pull up one loop (4 loops on the hook). Yarn over and pull through all 4 loops on the hook to complete the baby bean stitch.
Helpful Tutorials
Notes:
- Stitch multiple of 2 + 1 for the turning chain
- Reversible
- Ch 2 to turn does not count as a stitch and we do not work into it.
- When I work into the foundation chain, I prefer working into the back bar (back bump) of the chain. You can work under the back loop only if you prefer.
- To make this scarf longer, work more stitches.
- To make this scarf wider, chain more stitches using the stitch multiple.

How to Crochet the Baby Bean Stitch Scarf
Photos for Row 1 to Row 4 of the Baby Bean Stitch Scarf are below. I’ve included captions to help you with the stitches and placement just in case you don’t have time to watch the video tutorial I prepared. You can watch it in HD on YouTube here.
You can use any yarn and hook to make this project!
- With the yarn and hook you’ve chosen for the project, chain until you reach the width you’d like for your scarf (shawl, or blanket); or chain until your width measures 5.5 inches.
- Check that you number of chains can be divided by 2 evenly and then add 1 extra chain(to match the stitch multiple).
- Follow the pattern as written.
- Continue crocheting until your project is the length you would like it to be, or until it measures approximately 76 inches long.
- Finish off and weave in your ends.
