Knit Look Crochet Hat and Scarf

I originally posted this knit look crochet hat and scarf pattern as a guest post on YarnHookNeedles.com.

Jerica, the blogger and designed behind YarnHookNeedles is such an incredible person and mentor. I’ve learned so much from her and continue to learn from and be inspired by her.

If you’ve seen me hanging out over there, then you’ve probably noticed that I have an obsession with knit look crochet! I’ve even designed a knit look crochet poncho!

Pattern Notes

Tristan stitch instructions – yo twice, insert hook, yo, draw up a loop, yo, draw through 2 loops, yo, draw through 3 loops
Chains do not count as stitches.
Scarf is worked lengthwise in one piece, attaching fringe afterwards.
Beanie is worked as a rectangle and then seamed together.
Beanie is a slouchy style.
You can customize the height of the beanie by subtracting or adding stitches to your starting chain.
You can customize the width/circumference of the beanie by subtracting or adding repeats of row 2 and 3. This beanie has approx 2 inches of stretch so when customizing width be sure to work up until your rectangle is 2 inches shorter than the head circumference measurement.
When making the scarf, if you leave about a 6-in long tail from the starting chain’s slip knot, then you can leave it long without having to weave it in. It will then be hidden in the fringe of the scarf. The same can be done for the end of the scarf when you fasten off.

Knit Look Crochet Hat and Scarf Pattern

Scarf

ch 125

In Row 1, you will want to crochet into the back bump.This will give a nice looking edge to this side of the scarf as well as preventing the fabric from wanting to curl under.

Row 1: hdc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc in each st across

Row 2: (be sure to work the sl sts in this row loosely) ch 1, turn, sl st into the 3rd loop (sometimes called the horizontal bar) of the last hdc from the previous row, sl st into the 3rd loop of each st across; SEE PHOTOS A AND B

Row 3: ch 2, turn, ts BLO across

Row 4 – 8: repeat rows 2 and 3

Row 9: ch 1, turn, sc BLO across

Fasten off and weave in all ends.

Attaching Fringe to Scarf

For each fringe, cut 5 12-inch lengths of yarn.

Hold strands together folded in half to form a small loop at the fold.

Use the crochet hook to pull the loop through the scarf from the front side to the back side.

Then, still using the hook, pull the fringe ends through the loop and pull on them to tighten.

Make 5 fringes across each end of the scarf. Trim fringe to even, if needed.
