Sapphire Lace Scarflet

Best Blog Tips











The classic, go-with-anything quality of navy blue has made it an enduring color in women's closets for generations!
The convenience of the color has been softened by the presence of lace edges to create a relatively simple to make, feminine scarflet that wears easy and well. For your convenience, I used a readily available and affordable yarn.

Materials-

Red Heart worsted weight yarn, Soft Navy (1 skein)
Crochet hook size H
Blunt needle (to weave in tails)
Scissors

Side #1-
With Soft Navy and H hook, ch 26.

Ch 3, turn. (10 dc and 4 ch-4 spaces)
Row 3- 3 dc in same stitch as ch 3, *skip all the way to the next ch-4 space, skip first ch of ch-4 space and work 7 dc in next ch, skip next 2 ch, rep from * across, end row by working 4 dc in top of turning ch. Ch 7, turn. (5 shells)

Ch 3, turn. (8 dc and 4 ch-4 spaces)
Row 5- Skip first 2 ch of ch-4 space, work 7 dc in next ch, skip last ch of ch-4 sp, *skip all the way to the 3rd ch of next ch-4 space, make 7 dc in that ch, skip next ch, rep from * across, 1 dc in top of turning ch. Ch 5, turn. (4 shells plus 2 dc)
Row 6- Rep row 2. Ch 3, turn.

Rows 21 to 35- Alternate 1 dc row and 1 tr row. (23 sts) Fasten off Soft Navy and weave in tail.

Side #2-
Note-
This side of the scarflet will be 1 row shorter than the opposite side, because of the gaping hole of the keyhole, if you make it the same length as the other side,
it will appear to be longer, and the ends won't match. If you make it one row shorter, the ends match perfectly.

This is the Boxy Neck Warmer revisited with a different ending to it for fun. As with the previous pattern, I have simplified the pattern to make it easier to make. It is a wide scarflet that can be enlarged a bit to be used even as a shoulder warmer.
asy as they come and nice to boot! If you are making little gifts to delight your friends for the Holidays, this one might qualify for your list! An added bonus is the little frog closure which you can easily learn to make and which will be very useful for many other things, such as purses, shoulder swraps, cardigans, you name it!
Materials:Worsted weight yarn of your choice (I used Red Heart Tea Leaf for scarflet and scraps of red Heart Honeydew for frog and edging)

This is a relatively easy scarflet to make. It is basically made in two shades of two colors. One side is made in dark green and light red, the opposite side is made in a darker red and a lighter green. The gathering strap is made in a variegated to give it a little more punch. An altogether happy little piece of neckwear.

Moni's Edging

Best Blog Tips

I love these types of mile-a-minute edgings which work upwards, because they are easier to measure and adjust to fit a project than the ones that work up horizontally. It's terrible to make all your edging in a particular length only to find out later that it is either too short or too long!

With this kind of edging that won't happen since you work the base of the edging upwards until you have the exact width you need, then you turn the corner and work the decorative ends, that way, it is sure to fit!

This lovely and easy edging could be used for many different projects, from a shawl to an afghan.

Base-
With chosen color of worsted wight yarn and crochet hook size H (I used Red Heart's Shocking Pink), ch 5.
Row 1- Ch 5. 2 dc in 4th ch from hk, ch 2, 3 dc in next ch. Ch 5, turn.
Row 2- 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc in ch-2 sp, ch 5, turn.
Row 3- 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc in ch-2 sp, ch 3, turn.
Rep rows 2 and 3 alternately, until you have the length you need to sew the edging to your project (widthwise.)
When you reach that measurement, work the decorative end as follows:

Decorative End:
Row 1-
Work base row 3 once. Ch 3.
Row 2- Make 8 dc in 1st ch-5 space, 2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc in next ch-5 sp, *work 8 dc in next ch-5 sp, 2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc in next ch-5 sp, rep from * across. Ch 3, turn.



Row 3- 1 dc in each of first 2 dc of 8-dc shell, ch 6, skip 2 dc, 1 dc in each of last 3 dc of 8-dc shell, ch 2, 1 sc in ch-2 sp of next shell, ch 2, *1 dc in each of first 3 dc of 8-dc shell, ch 6, skip 2 dc, 1 dc in each of last 3 dc of 8-dc shell, ch 2, 1 sc in ch-2 sp of next shell, ch 2, rep from * across. Ch 3, turn.
Row 4- 1 dc in each of next 2 dc, in ch-6 sp work: 1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 dc, ch 4, sl st in 4th ch from hook, 1 dc, 1 hdc, 1 sc, 1 dc in each of next 3 dc, ch 1, 1 sc in next sc, ch 1, *1 dc in each of next 3 dc, in next ch-6 sp work: 1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 dc, ch 4, sl st in 4th ch from hook, 1 dc, 1 hdc, 1 sc, 1 dc in each of next 3 dc, ch 1, 1 sc in next sc, ch 1, rep from * across.
Done!
