\*\* This pattern was first designed, written, and knitted by Zakka Life Crafts. I loved it so much that I wanted to write a crocheted version of it. The original designer was nice enough to give me permission to post my version. Thank you!\*\*\*
Materials:
One skein of, Caron Simply Soft in Lemonade. Bits of the colors black, tan, gray, and soft pink. Size H hook or whatever works best for you and your yarn.
Notes:
For the ch 3 at the beginning of rows 10-125 and 127-135, I used a technique for filling in the chain, so that you don't have the hole that always appears at the beginning of a row. Before you start your ch 3 take your hook to the back of your last dc. Insert your hook from back to front and pull a loop through, (two loops on your hook) turn your work, yo, pull though (one loop on hook), next insert your hook into the second diagonal loop that you just made and yo, pull though, (two loops on hook) yo and pull though. Now you can work your next reg dc. If you need to see this worked out, in real time, there is a video on my blog that has this technique and many other helpful ones. The lady says to make one for each ch needed, but I found that on this scarf if I did it would stick out on the sides, so I only did this this two times. If you don't want to use this technique then you should ch 3 at the beginning of each row.
