My Scarf: Skinny version (FREE crochet pattern)



The fashion of skinny scarfs does not seem to leave us any soon. Started with a famous Sophie Scarf by Petiteknit, it has spread widely, with new designs appearing almost every month. I have contributed to this lovely trend with my own version of a mini scarf (the pattern for My Scarf can be found HERE on my blog). But could not help myself and created another, skinny, version. 

This design is about a long, slim scarf crocheted with an easy stitch pattern. It is worked up quickly (it really can take you just one day to make). It will not only make a beautiful stylish accessory but will also become a perfect last-minute gift. Anyone preparing for a gift season already? 

I literally could not stop and made three skinny scarfs for myself already. Unless for the regular version of My Scarf (with Scheepjes Arcadia yarn), I used the brand-new Scheepjes Kindsome yarn for my skinny scarfs. And I was happy to figure out that just one ball is enough to crochet one. 

Kindsome yarn, composed of 40% compostable polyester and 60% responsible wool, is a pure happiness to work with. It is so very soft and nice against the skin, and the stitch definition is perfect. 

You can find Kindsome yarn via local Scheepjes stockiests

I have already used this yarn for a garment project which I will share with you later, and I am already planning a few more designs with it. I can only hope that more new colors will be released in the future, as the color range is a little limited now. But still enough to choose from. 

Before we jump to the pattern, please let me give you some major details about the skinny version of My Scarf. 

I only used one color for mine, but of course you can add the stripes as in the regular version (who knows, maybe I won’t stop and will crochet a stripy scarf for myself soon). 

The gauge is 26 sts and 18 rows to measure 10cm x 10cm/ 4in x 4in with pattern for gauge (counting each st and ch1-sp as one stitch) with 3mm or 3.5mm hook. 

My finished scarf measured approx. 130cm x 13cm /51¼in x 5in, and for this size one full ball of Scheepjes Kindsome yarn is enough. 

The skinny version, as well as other versions of My Scarf, are fully adjustable, and you can make yours longer. Just please keep in mind that you will need more than one ball of yarn. 

Please, find the pattern below.

Hope you enjoy it!
