Shades of Grey Scarf Pattern

Here’s how it works.
The true beauty of this lovely textured scarf is it looks stunning from both sides! I can’t wait to see what it looks like with the yarns you choose too 🙂 I want to make another one in rainbow colors 🙂 The stitches are made up of little fans and on the one side of the fabric they are much more prominent – almost like small scales – I love this stitch pattern. 🙂

We are going to recreate a similar finish to our beginning edge by working on the bottom edge of our starting chain row. With the RS of your scarf facing you, attach your yarn in the base of R1 with 1 sc in the base of the ch where the final sc of R1 was worked. Work 1 fan in the base of each chain where the fans from R1 were worked. Work 1 sc in the base of each chain where the sc stitches were worked, all the way across. Skip all the other chs and sts. [5 sc, 4 fans] Finish off and weave in ends.

Hi Julie! It should indicate “dc”. The (1 dc, ch 1, 1 dc) needs to be worked into the first dc of the row (i.e. the final dc of R2). I apologize for the typo!! I’ve updated the pattern and the PDF version at Craftsy with the correction. Thank you so much for letting me know! All the best, Rhondda
I am really having trouble with Row 3. It says after the Chain 4 to do (1 dc, ch 1, 1 dc) in the first sc. But then *1 sc in next sc. In the previous row, there was only 1 sc per grouping. This just doesn’t seem to work. And when I look at the picture for Row 3, it seems that the (1 dc, ch 1, 1 dc) goes into the top of the first BPdc or the dc from the end of the previous row, and then the sc goes into the sc from the previous row.
