Woven Scarf Pattern

St. Francis Scarf

I named this scarf for the uniform colors of my son’s school and the first one made
was donated to the Francis House to give out with their Christmas gifts.

Materials:

• Size I crochet hook (5.5 mm)
• Worsted weight yarn in 3 colors. I used:
• Red Heart Heat Wave (1 ball each)
• Summer Night (Black - Color A)
• Radio (Grey - Color B)
• Luggage (Burgundy - Color C)

Pattern:

Mesh base:

In color A, Ch 33. Leave a tail about 6 inches long to blend in with fringe. 

Row 1: Dc in 5th ch from hook. *Ch 1, skip 1 ch, dc in next* to end. (16 dc)

Row 2: Ch 3 turn. Dc in each dc across chaining 1 in between each dc. 

Rows 3-7: Repeat row 2. (7 rows of color A) Cut yarn.

Rows 8-14: Join color B and repeat row 2. (7 rows of color B)

Rows 15-21: Join color A and repeat row 2. (7 rows of color A)

Rows 22-28: Join color B and repeat row 2. (7 rows of color B)

Rows 29-31: Join color C and repeat row 2. (3 rows of color C)

Continue the mesh base pattern:

7 rows of color A

7 rows of color B

7 rows of color A

7 rows of color B

3 rows of color C

7 rows of color A

7 rows of color B

7 rows of color A

7 rows of color B

Finish off your yarn ends.

Woven chains:

Make 8 chains of color A

Make 4 chains of color B

Make 3 chains of color C

Ch about 180. Leave a tail about 6 inches on each side to blend in with the fringe.

If you’re not sure the chain will fit, weave in one chain to see how well it fits within the scarf
then adjust accordingly. They should stretch a little to fit.

Weave 4 of the color A chains through the mesh, alternating directions.
So if you started with the first chain going over, under, over, under, then when you start the
second chain go under, over, under, over, etc.  

Weave 4 of the color B chains next. 

Weave 3 of the color C chains.

Weave the last 4 color A chains. 

Fringe:

String together 3 strands of each color about 12 inches long.
Make a larks head knot in each chain space, pulling in any tails. 

15 knots on each end of the scarf. Be sure to make the knots the same way for a clean look.

Fold the scarf in half and even out the fringe by trimming.
