Windy Day Head Scarf Pattern
When you purchase through links on my site, I may earn an affiliate commission.
Here’s how it works.
This month my June Scarf of the Month Club Pattern is the Windy Day Head Scarf. This lightweight head scarf is crocheted with Fine Weight Yarn [2] and a 4 mm (G) hook.
I designed the band that goes around your head to be a little bit wider and a little bit longer to make it super comfortable to wear and easy to tie. You can tuck the tip of the triangle edge of the scarf into the tied knot to keep it in place or, let it hang over the back of your hair.
I hope this pattern comes in handy for some of you! xo Rhondda
Remember this scarf is just one of the three brand-new scarf patterns today!

Helpful Tutorials
Finding the ch1sp:
Notes:
- Stitch multiple is any odd number of stitches, plus 2 (understanding stitch multiples)
- The initial ch 2 counts as the first esc of the row. This means we sk the stitch beneath it, since we already worked into it as the ch 2.
- Do not count the sl st as a stitch and do not work into it.

Windy Day Head Scarf Pattern Instructions
The Windy Day Head Scarf is crocheted back-and-forth in rows. The head band portion is crocheted first before rejoining the yarn to create the triangle point section of the scarf.
Using your 4 mm (G) hook (or size required for gauge):
R1: (RS) Ch 131, sk the first 2 chs (counts as 1 esc). *(1 esc, ch 1, 1 esc) in the next ch, sk the next ch**. Rep from * to ** across to the last ch. Work 1 esc in the last ch, turn. [64 sets of (esc, ch 1, esc), 2 esc]
R2-R15: Ch 2 (counts as 1 esc). *Sk the next esc, (1 esc, ch 1, 1 esc) in the next ch1sp, sk the next esc**. Rep from * to ** across, to the last esc of the row. Work 1 esc in the top of the ch 2, turn. [64 sets of (esc, ch 1, esc)]
Finish off your yarn. With the right side facing, count over the first esc of the row plus 15 sets of (esc, ch 1, esc). This would be 31 esc, or 15 ch1sp from the right edge.
Note if you are left handed count over from the left edge instead.
Rejoin your yarn in the 16th set of (esc, ch 1, esc), in the ch1sp with a sl st.

Edging
Round 1
Working along the side edge, ch 5, sl st to the next ch1sp (created by the turning chain 1 at the beginning of each row). *Ch 5, sl st to the next ch1sp**. Rep from * to ** along the side edge, skipping every other row end (that does not have a ch1sp on the end of it). There will be 16 sets along this first side edge.
1 2 3
Work sc stitches evenly along the top of Row 15. I worked 2 sc for every (esc, ch 1, esc) set.
At the corner, ch 1 and continue crocheting sc stitches evenly along the row ends working toward the foundation row.
Ch 1 at the corner and crochet sc stitches evenly across the foundation row.
Ch 1 at the corner and rotate your work to continue working sc stitches evenly up the side edge of your project.
Ch 1 at the corner, rotate your work and crochet sc stitches evenly along the edge of Row 15. I worked 2 sc for every (esc, ch 1, esc) set.
Next we will work up the side edge of the triangle portion of the scarf. We will begin by placing a slip stitch in the ch1sp found at the edge of the first row – remember these ch1sp will be on every other row since we began each row with a ch 1.
*Sl st to the ch1sp, ch 5**. Rep from * to ** along the side edge, skipping every other row end. There will be 15 sets in total on this side.
Sl st to the ch1sp in the (1 esc, ch 1, 1 esc) set found in the final row (R33). Ch 8 and sl st to the first sl st of the edging to join.
Round 2
*(1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 dc, 1 hdc, 1 sc) in the next ch5sp, sl st to the next sl st**. Rep from * to ** along the side edge to the first sc. Work 1 sc in each sc across and work (1 sc, ch 1, 1 sc) in each corner ch1sp.
Continue crocheting this way until you reach the first sl st before the first ch5sp at the triangle section of the scarf.
Sl st to the first sl st, *(1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 dc, 1 hdc, 1 sc) in the next ch5sp, sl st to the next sl st**. Rep from * to ** until you reach the final ch8sp. Work (1 sc, 2 hdc, 2 dc, 1 tr, 2 dc, 2 hdc, 1 sc) in the ch8sp, sl st to the first sc of the round to join. Finish off and weave in your ends.
