Materials Needed

200g of medium-weight acrylic yarn (Swan “With Love” or similar)
4mm crochet hook (suggested for a lacier feel)
Yarn needle for weaving in ends
Scissors
Stitch markers (optional)

Step-by-Step Pattern

1. Foundation

Make a slipknot.
Chain 30.

2. Row 1: Base Row

Work 2 double crochets (dc) into the 5th chain from hook.
Chain 1, then work 2 dc into the same stitch (W stitch).
Skip next 2 chains, dc in next chain.
Skip 2 chains, work W stitch (2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc) in next chain.
Repeat from * to * across the row.
When you reach the last chain: instead of a dc, chain 3 and slip stitch into the last stitch to finish with a wavy end.
Turn your work.

3. Row 2: Set Up Texture

Chain 3 to start the new row.
In each ch-1 space from previous W stitches: work (2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc) into the space.
For every single dc between W stitches: work one front post double crochet (FPdc/relief stitch) around the dc (not in the top of the stitch, but around the “post”).
Repeat (W stitch in ch-1 space, FPdc in dc post) across.
End the row with a normal dc in the top of the turning chain from the previous row.
Turn.

4. Row 3 and Beyond: Repeat

Continue always chaining 3 to start a new row.
In every ch-1 space, work a W stitch.
In every dc (relief stitch from last row), work FPdc.
Always end the row with a dc in the turning chain.

5. Continue Until Finished

Repeat Row 3 for the entire length of the scarf (about 140 cm or to your preferred length).
Use all your yarn or stop when the scarf is as long as you like.

6. Finishing

Fasten off and weave in ends using a yarn needle.
Block lightly if desired to open up the stitch pattern.

Suggested Uses

Stay warm with this lightweight scarf in chilly weather.
Dress up a jacket or sweater with its textured design.
Makes a perfect gift for friends or family.

Tutor's Suggestions

Don’t worry about “right” or “wrong” side—the scarf is fully reversible!
Both ends will have a wavy, pretty finish that stands out.
Use a solid color to highlight the stitch work, or try ombré yarn for a trendy gradient.

Pro Tip

Keep your front post stitches loose—pull the loop up to the height of your row—so your scarf doesn’t tighten or curl!
