Just a beautifully designed and delicate motifed crochet scarf. These kind of open work, lacy, and drape-y scarves work well with my body type and my wardrobe! This is a great on-the-go project because you just make small motifs. So you're not sitting there with a giant afghan on your lap trying to crochet while you're on the subway.

After the first motif, the next one says to join 28. Does that mean I need to make 27 more of the 1st motif before going to the "next motif"?

AFC Editor Julia

Mar 09, 2018

Hi there! No, you make one of the first motif and then make 28 of the next motif, which you'll be joining together with the first one. Julia, AFC editor

I just started am on Round 4 - need help!!! Ch 6 then ch 3? what does it mean ch3 here throughout? Throughout what? Please explain what it's supposed to look like. Thank you!

AFC Editor Julia

Mar 08, 2018

Hi there! That line just means that when you work your ch 6 that it'll count as your first double crochet stitch + ch 3. Throughout meant anytime you work the ch 6. It's useful for if you count your stitches at the end of every row or round, so you know how to classify your stitches. So for round 4: Slip st in first ch-5 sp, ch 6 (counts as first dc, ch 3 here and throughout), dc in same ch-5 sp (corner made) --- this means you will slip stitch in your first ch-5 space, then ch 6 and then double crochet in the same ch-5 space. I hope that makes sense! Julia, AFC editor

For the love of lacy scarves!. This Blush Rose Crochet Scarf looks very unassuming but if you look closely, it has a very intricate lacy design. I think I would like to make this one. It's airy but can still give enough warmth on a chilly spring day. I would like to make this longer and wider or oversized is better.

Im having a major problem with this project. Theres no photo at the top of the page, and I am thoroughly confused by the instructions concerning the Second Motif. I spent more than a little time trying to chase down the original pattern, but if it ever was on the Yarnspirations/Caron website, it is no longer listed. The tiny thumbnail looks very nice, and I would love to give this one a try, but not without more guidance.

Hi Jane, The photo should be appearing now. :) Also, I would suggest contacting Yarnspirations directly on this pattern as it's their original design and can provide more clarity and help. Thanks! Julia, editor for AllFreeCrochet

Wow, such a beautiful design! One of the nicest scarf patterns I have seen. The color is lovely too. I am not too familiar with join as you go patterns but love learning new things so am looking forward to giving it a try. If I get stuck my wonderful friend, Filly, will no doubt have some very helpful advice.

A beautiful scarf to crochet and to wear all spring and summer. Love the rose color and the lacy openness that the single crochet and slip stitches give to the motifs. After reading through the pattern carefully, it does seem relatively easy to accomplish. This pretty scarf would make for a great gift idea.

This is a very pretty blush rose scarf. Even after seeing all the comments from others about this being so difficult, I am willing to give it a try because the finished project is just so nice. Thank you for the update and tips on how to start working on this scarf. I will make sure to go slow and concentrate on this project while working on it.

I liked the final scarf, but with other peoples comments about it being a difficult pattern and after reading the authors comment, Im not sure Id like to attempt this pattern. I also dont care for join as you go patterns...Im not very good at joining (or making good seams). I would think that a scarf being repetitive, it would be easy enough to follow the pattern (if well-written) without a video tutorial but videos definitely help with more intricate patterns or for beginners of crochet. I cant say I blame the author for not creating a video as its time consuming.

I am sorry ,but this is by far the worst pattern I have every worked with. Poorly written and no video

I'm not normally a pink girl, but I think this blush shade would be great for an accessory like this and offset the amount of dark colors I normally wear.

Does this take just one ball of yarn?

AFC Editor Julia

Mar 18, 2016

Hi there, Each ball of the specified yarn weighs 3oz. The pattern calls for 5oz of yarn, so you will need two balls of yarn for this (you'll end up with a little leftover, which can eventually make its way into a lovely scrap project!) :) I hope this helps! Editor for AllFreeCrochet

I designed this scarf for Caron yarns and contracted with them The contract was only for the scarf and the written instructions It's how I make my living They didn't pay me to make a video and I have a full schedule right now that won't allow me to make a video now As for the join-as-you-go technique itself it requires a lot of concentration when first learning it but once you understand the concept any other join-as-you-go pattern will be a breeze It's possible to learn it without the aid of a video It's how I learned it but I do have something that may help Although this isn't a video for this particular square once you review the video here you should be able to apply it to any join-as-you-go as long as the pattern states the join and the number of chains necessary I was contracted to do…Read More this video by Crochet - - magazine so it's actually a project from that magazine rather than the scarf above https www youtube com playlist list PLoH zXZBXpSMjhiw GshrpI-zuHFtlGO- Additionally there are times when seeing the original text of the pattern from the designer will help to understand certain parts of a pattern Here is round in its original form Keep in mind that it has not been proofed or tech-edited Rnd Ch dc in same ch- sp ch sc in next ch- sp ch dc in next ch- sp ch holding First Motif close to work with WS of work facing each other sl st in corner ch- sp of First Motif ch dc in same ch- sp of Second Motif ch sl st in next ch- sp of First Motif ch sc in next ch- sp of Second Motif ch sl st in next ch- sp of First Motif ch dc in next ch- sp of Second Motif ch sl st in next ch- sp of First Motif ch dc in same ch- sp of Second Motif ch sc in next ch- sp ch dc ch dc in next ch- sp ch sc in next ch- sp ch sl st to third ch of beg ch- fasten off Note that I do not frequent the Allfreecrafts forums because it's difficult for me to locate comments so I won't receive any notification of comments here I hope that helps

I have been crocheting for years. I love this pattern, but after numerous attempts I am not coming up with 4 stitches in the beginning click.

This is a nice scarf, however, I am like the others, I do not understand exactly how you connect them. I see the trick is in the 4 round however how exactly do you do it?

I need some coaching. I have the 2 motifs completed and cannot figure out how or where to join. Thanks.

The trick is joining when doing the boarder in "round 4".
