Free Crochet Pattern - Bumpy Scarf
Pretty Scarf Pattern Easy Enough for a Beginner
This pattern is provided free and may not be sold. You may sell the items you make, but you may not sell the pattern. Feel free to share this pattern on your site, but please link to this page - do not post the pattern itself.
I prefer using three coordinating colors of yarn for this scarf pattern. You may use two colors of yarn for a slightly different effect. I don't think a single color scarf crocheted using this pattern would show the texture of the pattern well. The photo here shows a scarf I made using black, white and gray yarn. More pictures of scarves from this pattern crocheted using different colors may be seen here and here.
I use a standard 4-ply worsted weight yarn for this crochet pattern. The bumpy texture resulting from the stitches used makes it a fairly thick scarf. I think a heavier weight yarn would result in a scarf that was too thick, but of course you may experiment with whatever yarn you have on hand.
Crochet Stitches Used
Ch =chain
SC = single crochet
DC = double crochet
TC = treble/triple crochet
Foundation chain is multiple of 3 + 1
Starting ch of 196 with size I crochet hook will result in a scarf of approx 74" in length
For a shorter scarf, decrease foundation chain by increments of 3
Bumpy Scarf Pattern
With size I hook and Color A, ch 196
Row 1: *SC in second ch from hook, DC in next ch, TC in next ch*, repeat across row, ending with TC in last st, break off. Attach color B, ch 1, turn.
Row 2: SC in first st, DC in next stitch, TC in next st, repeating across row, ending with TC in turning ch, break off. (You will be doing a SC in the TC of the previous row, DC in the DC of previous row, and TC in SC of previous row). Attach color C, ch 1, turn.
Repeat row 2, alternating colors A, B, and C until you have 10 rows, ending with color A.
Weave in ends.

Post a Comment♥ excellent work; thanks for sharing
Sharon, I'm hoping you'll come back to look at the pattern again and will see this. Could you please contact me at Ldyjarhead@yahoo.com? I'd love to talk with you about this project for the Superbowl.
Recently the Indianpolis Super Bowl 2012 Committee asked crafters in the area to knit or crochet scarves for the 8,000 volunteers for the 2012 Super Bowl. We were told to use just the Colts blue and white colors, any pattern we wanted. I have already done 4 in other patterns, but this one is just Super. It works up differently on both sides in just the two colors. It is striking. I just alternated the two colors in each row. I plan on making many more in this pattern. Thank you so much. We have till Nov 2011 to make those 8,000 scarves.
Maybe I missed something - but I don't see how many skeins of yarn this pattern takes.
Need to find time to try this, would be good for Christmas gifts.
I love to crochet (usually doilies, though). This sounds like fun and looks really nice, thanks for the instructions!
I was cleaning out a dresser a couple of weeks ago and came across some leftover yarn and various size crochet hooks (and knitting needles) that I have't used in some time. You've given me the incentive to pull those hooks out of storage!
That is pretty! I may try to make one! I'll let you know how it goes!
: )
I love to crochet,and this is such an attractive and simple pattern! I may have to make one up.
