Wanderlust Scarf
"Stay extra warm and cozy on any adventures you have this fall and winter, with the Wanderlust scarf! So many of you mentioned that you loved the Wanderlust beanie, and how simple it was to make, that I had to design a scarf to go with it. There are some differences in the way this scarf is worked (rows), compared to the hat which is worked in the round, but I have also included an infinity scarf/cowl version that is worked very similarly to the hat, and won't have any "wrong side" rows facing the front, as the regular scarf does."
NotesIf you would like to make a cowl, or infinity scarf instead, I've included those instructions below the regular scarf instructions. You will be working in the round, so things will be slightly different, and constructed more like the matching Wanderlust beanie.
You could even make this into an afghan! Try a starting chain of 268 for a 7 ft wide blanket, and 305 for an 8 ft wide blanket. Keep repeating rows 2-6 until your blanket is as long as you'd like it. This pattern is written in multiples of 2 + 1.

Oh my, I have not made this one yet, but I have the yarn and the pattern and will be making this great looking Wanderlust Scarf tonight! I love the look of this scarf and think it will make a great gift for my son-in-law for Christmas. The written pattern is well done and so easy to follow and understand. I love the different textures in this one and the idea of it being crocheted in the long rows and not short rows is great! There is also a pattern to make this into a cowl and ideas on how to make this pattern into a hat or even a afghan. So many ideas for this stitch pattern. Thank you so much for sharing this free scarf pattern.
