Moorland Puff Stitch Scarf Pattern

The Yarn

The yarn I selected for this month’s project is called Homespun Prism DK. It was sent to me as part of the Brand Ambassador program with King Cole Yarn.

This beautiful blended yarn is crafted with Fine Merino Superwash and Alpaca wools.

Homespun Prism DK is soft and durable and features a loose ply with gentle flecks throughout. The variegated shades in this textured yarn line are inspired by nature and I loved crocheting through each different shade in the Moorland colorway.

There are currently 10 different colorways available:

Yuletide (5180)
Summer Meadow (5181)
Moorland (5182)
Rockpool (5183)
Rain Cloud (5184)
Heather (5185)
Dawn Horizon (5186)
Jade Lagoon (5187)
Autumn Whisper (5188)
Ocean Breeze (5189)

Find them in your local yarn shop here. Order them online from Wool Warehouse here.

Homespun Prism DK is a luxurious yarn that is perfect for garments, accessories and other wearables.

Helpful Tutorial

Crochet Stitch Guide

Notes:

Stitch multiple of 2
Reversible
Initial ch 1 does not count as a stitch.
Initial ch 2 counts as 1 hdc. *This means you do not work into the stitch at the base of the chain 2. Remember, since we are counting the chain 2 as a stitch, we need to work into the chain 2 when we return to it on the next row.
Review the Puff Stitch instructions in Special Stitches – each PS is completed with a chain 1.
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 rows.
To make this scarf wider, chain more stitches using the stitch multiple.
Photo tutorials are available at the end of the post.

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 inches.
Check that your number of chains can be divided by 2 evenly (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 61.5 inches long.
Add the edging rows.
Finish off and weave in your ends.
