Skinny Minny Crochet Scarf
In the Designer's Words: "This long and skinny accent scarf adds some color to your outfit with the added benefit of providing protection against the wind. If you haven’t yet tried double-ended crochet (sometimes called double-ended Tunisian crochet, crochet on the double, or crochenit, or cro-hook/croknit by Ravelry), you will be surprised to see how easy it is. With double-ended crochet, you use a double-ended crochet hook and two yarns to create reversible projects that highlight a different yarn on each side. Experiment with double-ended crochet by using two different yarn weights. This pattern includes a video tutorial for the basic stitch used (which is a double-ended version of the Tunisian simple stitch). Skills Used Basic crochet stitch: chain Crocheting in rows Special stitch pattern: Tss, double-ended crochet (explanations provided in pattern and video tutorial)."
