Bar Stitch Scarf

"The Bar Stitch Scarf uses the front post double crochet stitch to create the pleasing visual of long, neat lines down the full length of your scarf! It accentuates the length and draws your eyes all the way down to the fringe! This is a simple project with only a two row repeat. It’s a great mindless pattern that results in a beautiful accessory! I’m sometimes a lazy crocheter and don’t want to bother with color changes or attaching a new skein of yarn. That’s when texture can really come in handy. Instead of creating visual interest with color, you can do it simply by using contrasting stitches. The bar stitch is one way to do this. It is very similar to the waffle stitch, but without the horizontal lines. This results in long straight rows, as opposed to grids created in the waffle design."
