Crochet This Super-Quick Scarf

Mary Gindling
The hardest part of making this scarf is choosing the colors. After that, your new scarf will take shape in an hour or two. It's made with two different yarns worked together and with a big crochet hook using two very simple stitches. Make several to use as gifts, or as a quick project for your next bazaar. Even a beginner can create one in almost no time at all, and I guarantee you'll get compliments on your new creation.

NOTE: This scarf works well made with two contrasting colors, or with complementary colors.
