Yeeee Haw! Do you guys know how long this has been sitting around in my “finished and ready to publish pile?” The Colours Chunky Free Crochet Scarf Pattern is here!

Thanks for all the support and love, and I’m so grateful you’re all here with me, crocheting, learning, and making together. Let’s talk about this scarf now :).

Colours Chunky Crochet Free Crochet Scarf Pattern

The Colours Chunky Crochet Scarf is a one-row repeat – it works up very fast for those of us who love a quick project!

Subsequently, it’s a bit of a stash buster if you have some yarn laying around you want to use up. Landscapes yarn is soft and comfy, but you can use any yarn you would like of course!

I named it Colours because, well, it has so many beautiful colors! There are endless opportunities for color combos using the Landscapes Yarns by Lion Brand.

If you have any questions about this pattern, please join my pattern support group Stardust Gold Crochet & Friends.  

I also have a bunch of other FREE CROCHET SCARF PATTERNS…make sure to check those out.

Fashion first!

This scarf is the perfect pairing with denim and looks great against darker clothes too. The colours really pop. I thought about making the fringe pink or purple, but ended up using a white to give a break from all those colours, but I would love to see someone make this with a bright fringe.

A little bit about the yarn…

I used Lion Brand’s Landscapes in the colorways Desert Spring, Meadow, Coral Reef. This yarn is very fuzzy. If you have any type of respiratory issues, I recommend wearing a light mask with it. I have dust allergies, so I tend to wear one when working with a fuzzy yarn. After you finish, I recommend washing it, then taking scissors or a lighter and getting rid of the frays. Despite the fuzzies, I do love this yarn and the beautiful coloways.

A little note about how this pattern is written…

One stitch! This is a one stitch pattern! Aside from the foundation half double crochet row, you will find this one of the easiest patterns you’ve worked all year!

This pattern is written with one size in mind and is very straight forward. It involves a one-row repeat after the first few rows and finishes off with a half double crochet row.

Break out the denim!

Add or subtract foundation half double crochet and keep your final stitch count in even numbers. To reduce the width, reduce the number of Row 2 repeats.

Tassels remain the same for all sizes.

+ Pattern Notes – Please Read

• Pattern is worked in rows.
• Loosely crochet the hdc into the skipped stitch, pulling up the stitch to loosen it more.
• Pattern works in any even number of stitches.
• Use 2 skeins of a main color, then contrast it with 2 of another color or use 2 different colors like I did!  Be Creative!
