Creek Bend Scarf

It’s always fun to add a complimentary design to one I’ve already made.  I think it’s fun to have some matching sets don’t you?  Since I designed the Creek Bend Beanie using the stash given to me by Michael’s, I thought it was fun to once again go back to the box and find another great skein.  I decided to use another color for the Creek Bend Scarf.  What do you think?  I really love this colorway!

Please Favorite or Queue in Ravelry!

Supplies:

1. Loops and Threads Barcelona, #5 Bulky Weight, 100% Acyrlic, 328 yards/200g, Colorway: Opulance  I used basically the entire skein of yarn.
2. Hook Size:  K/6.5mm
3. Tapestry Needle for Weaving in the ends.

Abbreviations:

ch – chain
flo – front loop only
rem – remaining
sc – single crochet
sp(s) – space(s)

Gauge:  Not important for this project.

Finished Measurement:  59″ x 6 1/2″

Notes: 

• Ch 1 in the first st is not considered the first sc in the pattern.
• Ch 3 is considered the first st in the row.  You can also use the alternative to the chain 3 if you want to try out a new technique.  I think you’ll love it.
