The Exquisite Gift Scarf is a wonderful, beginner-friendly crochet project. The pattern features basic stitches such as chains (ch), half double crochet (hdc), and double crochet (dc), resulting in a lacy, soft-to-the-touch fabric. The unique stitch pattern offers a slightly stretchy finish with a distinct look on each side. Perfect for gifting, this scarf is part of the Exquisite Gift Crochet Set, with a matching hat pattern available soon. Enjoy crocheting this elegant accessory!
For help on any of these stitches or techniques you can refer to the tutorials included in my free online crochet stitch guide.

Exquisite Gift Scarf: Easy Crochet Pattern
The Yarn
The yarn I chose for this month’s Crochet Club Patterns was Mulberry Soft DK from King Cole Yarns. This is a gorgeous environmentally responsible luxury yarn.
Mulberry Soft DK is made with the highest quality mulberry silk, blended with sumptuously soft superfine baby alpaca from Peru, to create a versatile double knit weight yarn with a beautiful lustre and elegant drape.
