You knew the Roses’s Crossing Scarf was coming didn’t ya? The beanie was just too cute to stay single! Once again, I’ve taken the Red Heart Soft yarn and created a beautiful accessory that is certain to keep you warm with the double-layer technique (and I don’t mean using 2 strands of yarn). Keep reading below to see what you’ll need. Don’t worry because there are videos to help you with the special stitching!

I have a daughter who lives in Stoneham, Mass. Her birthday is the 21st of Dec. I will make 2 of these. One for her and one for a daughter who lives in Kansas. Thank you for the pattern.
Did make this in two different greens. Had to use the tutorials to make sure I was doing the special stitches right but once I got the hang of it it went very well. Really love this and everyone who saw it was impressed. I do teach crochet and one person I know wanted to to it but I said no, she really does not have enough experience to do this one, but I will let her do this when she has a bit more practice under her belt.
This looks so beautiful. I can’t wait to get working on this for my daughter.
Hi Kathy,
My question is on the repeat of rows 10 & 11 (1times). Shouldn’t it be 2 times so you have 3 rows of X stitches? I was looking at the picture & I see 3 rows of X’s. I made 2 of the matching hats & gave them as gifts & they loved them. So now the cowl to go with them. Thank you.
Hi Kathy,
I figured out what I was doing wrong. I missed counted my rows. That ssc stitch messed my stitch count since you cant see the row below. My cowl came out beautiful. Thank you for the pattern.
Hi Kathy,
It’s a wonderful scarf. I want to crochet it for my Mother.
Could you publish a video explain how to crochet it, please?
Thank you
I love your patterns! Truly beautiful and amazing. Thank you.
Thank you Cheryl! ❤️
I’m excited to get started in 2017 making as many things as I can. I want to make and donate infant hats for our local hospitals. I’m just excited and ready to get started! Thank you for offering free patterns!
You’re so welcome Ramona! Have a great 2017!
WHAT A PRETTY PATTERN. Thank you. I be,I’ve I even have your color choices which I love on the Roses Crossing Scarf. HAPPY New Year
Thank you! Have a great New Year yourself Karen!
Love this pattern. Can it be made as a regular scarf versus an infinity scarf?
I haven’t had the time to work it flat. There will have to be a redesign of the ends, and I’m not sure if it’s possible yet. Keep your fingers crossed!
Hi Kathy,
I am having trouble with round 10. Could you please explain to me the count? I only get 36 and have one stitch left over at the end
I’m sorry for the error Lara. There should only be 36 x stitches. I’ll update the pattern. Make sure you aren’t counting the ch 2 as a stitch.
Thank You for another beautiful pattern Kathy ❤.
You’re so welcome Joan!!
