Scarf D in Plymouth Kudo

What is Being Made

Scarf D is a lightweight crochet scarf measuring approximately 4 inches wide by 58 inches long. This free crochet pattern is designed to be worked with Plymouth Yarn's Kudo yarn and creates an elegant, openwork accessory suitable for various seasons and occasions.

Craft and Primary Technique

This project is created using crochet as the primary construction method. The scarf features an open, lacy construction that showcases the yarn's qualities while maintaining a delicate drape. The pattern uses a repeating stitch sequence that builds vertically in rows, making it an accessible project for crocheters with basic to intermediate skills.

Stitches Used

The Scarf D pattern employs the following crochet stitches:

• Chain stitch (ch) – Used for the foundation chain of 12 stitches and for creating the openwork spaces throughout the pattern
• Single crochet (sc) – The primary stitch worked into chain spaces to create the textured elements of the design
• Chain-2 spaces (ch2) – These spaces create the open, airy quality characteristic of the Baby Petals stitch pattern

Pattern Structure

The scarf uses the Baby Petals stitch pattern, which is worked on an even number of stitches. The pattern begins with a foundation chain of 12 stitches. Row 1 establishes the pattern by alternating skipped stitches with single crochet and chain-2 combinations. Row 2 and all subsequent rows repeat the same stitch sequence, with the hook inserted into the chain-2 spaces from the previous row rather than into individual stitches. This creates a consistent, repeating texture. The scarf is worked to a length of 58 inches before fastening off and weaving in ends.

Materials and Tools

This pattern requires 1 hank of Plymouth Yarn's Kudo weighing 100 grams (shown in color 46). A Size H crochet hook is used to work the stitches. After completion, the finished scarf should be blocked out to enhance the drape and openwork definition of the Baby Petals stitch pattern.

Finishing

Once the scarf reaches the desired 58-inch length, fasten off the final stitch and weave in all yarn ends. Blocking the finished piece helps set the stitches and improves the overall appearance of the openwork pattern.
