Hi, thanks for this pattern but I think there is a typo between lines three and four. You said to chain 4 and then turn to go into row 4. Then row 4 starts out with another chain 4. I have crocheted for many years so I just ignored this and went on without doing the second chain 4 but I know that a novice could be messed up by this. Just thought I would let you know. Again, thanks for the pattern and I am making this now. Happy New Year, Tonya Tingey

I was skeptical about starting this pattern because the comments below made it seem like the pattern had an error. I decided to go ahead and try it. I did eventually reach the difficult part. Being that it is worked in 3 sections is what I thought made it difficult because at some points you are like where is this sc you speak of? I just used my best judgement and it turned out great! I love it! Also remember there is a right and a wrong side. You are just trying to keep the stitches uniform. Here is a picture of one I am selling. https://www.etsy.com/listing/154824353/keyhole-scarf?

Good Morning Fellower Crocheters. I need help with this pattern. Row 14. Do you ch 3 first and then make the 3 dc in the second section, or do you slip st section 1 to section 2, ch 3 then make the 3 dc in the first sc?

COMMENTS AND PLEA FOR HELP br Hi I was wondering if anyone has made this scarf I love the idea of the slits to pull it through rather than having to tie it resulting in unneed and unwanted bulk br I also was wondering if the slits could be incorporated into any scarf that one takes a liking too without that much trouble Any ideas of how to figure out where to put the slits br In other words I am just a beginner and wouldn't want to fail at my first attempt br I would not only like to make this scarf for one of my Daughters but for my Grand Daughter too I think the slits would be great for a youngster rather than a big old knot at her neck br That's why I think this scarf is great I personally could never wear them because of the…Read More extra bulk at the neck and just slinging them over they never stayed Is there a seasoned crocheter out there who would kindly rewrite the pattern for kids year and up br What say you br I am disabled but if it's tried and true I would gladly give you a few bucks to rewrite it in a child's size easy to read very easy to read format br
