Scarves can be a fantastic gift for anyone. Make them and give them as gifts to family, friends, co-workers, or even for yourself. Using different kinds of yarn can produce very different results. Make sure to read the back of the skein, looking for recommended hook sizes. Keep warm this winter with something special, and don’t forget about crocheting for charity.
Making scarves can also save money in the gift department, or save money for your own family. During hard times, we all are pinching pennies and I hope this crochet article can give you some money ease.
Happy Crocheting!
Bamboo Scarf
This scarf can always be used in different materials, but the bamboo is very cozy. Great as a beginner project, and would only take an hour or so to whip up.
Block Scarf
This is fun, and can be fashioned in a million different color combinations. You can make it smaller for children, or make it longer for more wrapping up material.
Granny Scarf
This uses the traditional granny technique without making motifs. This could be a lot of fun, and would be super warm with the right yarn. For children or a sport weight yarn, you can always change hook size and just stick to her measurements.
Hooded Scarf
This is a very versatile pattern. You could make ears, and sew them to the hood to make it for a child. You also could make a few crocheted flowers and put them on the hood. Or as always you can make the pattern as directed. If I didn’t live in florida, I would make this for myself!
Man’s Easy Striped Scarf
Hey now, it does not just have to be for men. This pattern is easy, and made with good color combos it would be darling for just about anyone, even the men.

This scarf would be popular with lots of people, and you can swap colors to match the different houses. Easy to make, and will keep them warm all winter long. Could also be a great addition to a costume!
Taffy Pull Scarf
I love this one, it’s bold and beautiful. You could also make it in natural colors for a man, and make it with a smaller hook and sport yarn for a child.
Spiral Scarf
This is a fashion statement for any woman. Making these in coordinating colors can add life to your wardrobe, even under that winter coat you can still look stylish. And guess what? You made it.
Piano Key Scarf
This is great for all those musicians out there. This is fun, and it is even better that it is handmade. Could be the perfect gift for the right person.
Cable Scarf
Cables are very impressive, and traditional. What is more impressive is that cables are usually done in the knitting realm. This pattern wont be easy, and if you aren’t familiar with the stitches make sure you do some home work and practicing before you start. Add fringe for extra extravagance.
