- Alternate between SS and HDC across, ending the row with SS
- CH1 and TO [37 stitches, exclusive of CH1 at the end]
For Row 2 (R2):
- SS into the 2nd CH from the hook, then HDC into the next ST
- Continue alternating between SS and HDC across, ending with SS
- CH1 and TO [37 stitches, excluding CH1 at the end]
Row 3 Onwards:
- Repeat Row 2 until the scarf reaches 131cm (51.5") or your desired length.
Closing The Scarf:
- Don't cut the yarn after the last row.
- Fold the scarf in half, aligning the foundation chain with the last row.
- With a loop left on the hook, slip-stitch the ends together by inserting the hook into the corresponding stitches of the foundation chain and the last row.
- Once done, turn the scarf inside out for a neat seam.
How to Change Colors:
- To create a stripy effect, change colors on the last SS of a row by yarning over with the new color to complete the SS, then continue as usual.
Additional Notes:
- The pattern creates a double-sided even moss stitch that looks identical on both sides.
