Chunky Crochet Scarf

My latest design and free crochet pattern on the blog is this easy 2-hour chunky crochet scarf. It’s a beginner-friendly crochet scarf that’s made using only 2 crochet stitches.

One of the stitches that you’ll be using for this scarf is half double crochet and the other stitch is half double crochet in the back loop. I love using this stitch to make scarves because it gives a beautiful ribbed knit-like crochet effect.

This crochet stitch also works up very fast, so if you need a quick crochet project this would be the perfect pattern!

Bulky Weight Yarn Makes the Perfect Chunky Crochet Scarf

One thing that I love about this crochet scarf is that it’s made using a super bulky weight yarn. Not only does this make the scarf warm, but it also allows this pattern to be worked up quickly.

It’s also the perfect yarn to work with for beginners! Have you tried Lion Brand Thick & Quick Yarn?

The Yarn You’ll Need for This Chunky Crochet Scarf

For this simple crochet scarf pattern, you will need 3 balls of Lion Brand Thick & Quick yarn in the color Fisherman. It’s a super bulky number 6 yarn that’s made from an acrylic wool base.

Lion Brand Quick & Thick is one of my favorite yarns to use for crochet projects because the yarn works up so beautifully. It’s also really soft and affordable!

Another thing that I love about this yarn is that it comes in a variety of different colors, 79 options total. My favorite colors are Fisherman, Peanut, and Grey Marble. What colors are your favorite?

Step 1: With your book in hand, wrap your yarn 5 times around the book.

Step 2: Cut your yarn at the bottom and take it off the book.

Step 3: Insert your crochet hook at the bottom of your scarf. Grab the yarn and insert it through the bottom loop with the crochet hook.

Step 4: Use your fingers to insert the end of the string into the loop and pull through. Now you have a tassel!

Step 5: Cut an additional piece of yarn(the size of your tassel) and tie it in the middle of the tassel twice.

Step 6: Trim ends, and repeat steps 1-5 for the remaining tassels.

Voila, you’re done!
