Gentleman's Scarf


My poor boyfriend and partner Sam wanted a scarf to wear when he goes to watch LIVE rugby with his pals or generally when it's cold. So he naturally asked if I could make him something being as I knitted his blanket for him but he wanted it to be in his regimental colours, so I happily obliged.

This was to be the second crochet scarf I had ever knitted and the most straightest as the other and 1st attempt sort of curved. I now realise that this was to be rectified by changing me hook from 5.00 to a 4.50 and it worked. Plus I noticed the edge that I started on was a lot softer to touch than the treble stitch I had used (UK STITCH). To alter this, I started with the green from the same chain stitch where I had started the black section from and this gave an equal edge. The scarf length was 250 chain stitches long.
