Tired of your old, bulky scarves that never seem to fit right? Say hello to My April Scarf of the Month Club CAL Pattern. This shaped scarf fits comfortably around your neck without having a lot of extra fabric at the nape of the neck. Upgrade your style and comfort with this must-have scarf pattern.
To crochet this fitted scarf you will only need 1 ball of Bulky Weight Yarn / Chunky Weight Yarn [5] and a 6 mm (J) crochet hook.
Visit me next week to get the coordinating hat pattern (the Bonny Crochet Hat).
Bonny Neck Scarf Pattern
The Yarn I used for this project:
For my Bonny Neck Scarf I used 2.9 oz (81 g) / 122 yds (112 m) of Chunky Weight Yarn.
I loved working with the Chunky Tweed Yarn. It didn’t fluff, or pill as I worked and the colored flecks were well intigrated into the yarn. The yarn is warm and dense; perfect for fall and winter wearables. My stitch definition is good and the yarn compliments my stitches (it doesn’t overpower them) which to me is an added bonus because I wasn’t limited to the type of stitch I used for my project.
Chunky Tweed Yarn is a blend of 72% Premium Acrylic, 25% Wool and 3% Viscose.
Chunky Tweed Yarn is available in a pretty range of colors with multi-colored flecks. Along with bright jewel tone shades, there are a few soft pastel color options too.
