1. You will notice that one side of the yarn has thread on top and an opening where you can crochet. Use this side of the yarn.

2. Starting with the end of the yarn, insert the crochet hook (front to back) in the first space. Then skip a space, insert the hook front to back in the next space and space after that (making 3 loops on top of your hook) See photo.

3. Pull the last loop made on the hook, through the first 2.

4. *Skip the next space of the yarn and insert the hook in the next 2 spaces as before. Again, pull the last loop through the other two on the hook.* Repeat this from * to * until you get the desired length for your scarf. I usually do 5-6 feet.

 

 

 

 

5. You will now turn and crochet into the work you have just made. Insert the hook into your work into the first larger space made by the space you skipped. Using the yarn, Skip a space, insert the hook in the next space and pull through the skipped space on your hook, but leave the beginning loop on.

6. You now have two loops on your hook. Insert the hook into the next space on your yarn and pull through the 2 loops on the hook.

7. Continue this pattern to the end. To finish, cut the yarn through the middle of the space and tie the beginning and ending threads together.
