Ocean Kiss Summer Scarf

Hi all

So here as promised the Ocean Kiss Summer Scarf, using the same decorative stitch pattern I used for the Ocean Kiss Summer Poncho. If you made, or are intending to make the poncho, and use Shawl in a Ball from Lion Brand then you will have found yourself with approx 100g spare!

Following feedback from some USA/Canada ladies finding it difficult to convert the stitches, I have just amended the pattern details below to include both USA terms and UK terms separately!

The Ocean Kiss Summer Scarf is my solution for you, as it only needs 100g and if you have a little less than that; it’s simple to reduce the number of rows, to make a skinnier scarf, as this pattern works along the long edge, end to end.

With Shawl in a Ball,  is maybe a little pricier than some yarns you are used to, you get so much high quality yarn for your bucks.

An amazing 481 yards and 150g, of a gorgeous brushed acrylic with 100% cotton slub. It has the look and feel of silk mohair, and none of the itchiness. With just 2 balls, you will be able to make both the Ocean Kiss Summer Poncho, and the Ocean Kiss Summer Scarf!

 

The Ocean Kiss Summer Poncho was my very first paid pattern. So as a bonus; and a massive thank-you to those of you who have purchased it, I am giving you the pattern for the Ocean Kiss Summer Scarf, for free, and you can find all the pattern details to use up your remaining yarn to make it below,  Enjoy !

If you live in the UK, and are unsure where to purchase Shawl in a Ball, I do have some in my online store.  I am not running a yarn warehouse, but as I like designing with this yarn, I am keeping some small quantities, to help those people who want to use it, without the risk of incurring huge import taxes. Of course you can use any type of substitute yarn for this project too.

Instructions written using USA crochet terms.

CH1 – Does not count as a stitch

CH4 – Counts as the first TRC stitch on “X” rows, meaning the very first space to place a stitch, is already “used”. And also counts as the first DC/CH1 on DC Cluster rows.

Multiple 3+2+1 for the foundation chain.

ROW 1:- CH183, SC in 2nd CH from hook, SC in each CH to end of row. (182 SC), turn

ROW 2:- CH1, HDC in each SC, repeat across, (182 HDC), turn

ROW 3:- CH1, HDC in each HDC, repeat across, (182 HDC), turn

ROW 4:- CH1, SC in each HDC, repeat across, (182 SC), turn

ROW 5:- CH4 (counts as a TRC), TRX across, ending with a TR in final SC (60 TRX, 2 TR), turn

ROW 6:- CH4, *(DC Cluster (space in top half of first “X”), CH2), repeat a further 58 times, final “X” DC Cluster, CH1, DC in 4th CH, turn (60 DC Cluster, 2DC)

ROW 7:- CH1, SC into previous row DC, SC in the CH1 space, *(SC through top of DC3TOG Cluster, 2 SC in CH2 space), *repeat across ending with DC through top of final cluster, SC under CH1 space (4th CH previous row), then SC in 3rd CH of previous row. (182 SC)

Check your count here, the easiest place to miss a SC is either the first 2, (the SC in the first cluster is your 3rd SC made) or the last 2 SC’s (made using the starting CH4 of the previous row).
