Free Crochet Instruction for Men Scarves

Free crochet instructions for men scarf Would you like to crochet a classic winter scarf for a special man? This free crochet pattern is similar to a knitting rib, but it is not. This scarf is part of a matching set with a winter hat. Of course this scarf is not only for men. It is an excellent gift for everyone!

The project is suitable for beginners to advanced crocheters and is suitable for crocheters who are familiar with chain stitch, single crochet and slip stitch. Most crochet beginners learn the slip stitch early. With this pattern, however, you work over whole rows, not as usual here and there. If you are not familiar with the basic anatomy of stitches, you may find it difficult to figure out where to place these stitches because the stitches are so short. It would be helpful if you were familiar with the slip stitch in rows before proceeding with this scarf.

Sizing

The scarf is worked over the length. You can change the size by changing the length of your start chain. You can also easily adjust the width by editing more or less lines.

Width: 5 inch

Length: 75 inch

Size

16 stitches and 28 rows = 10 cm pattern stitch

If the exact size of the finished scarf is important to you, crochet a colour sample and adjust this recommended measuring device. Row thickness is not important, but it will make a difference how much yarn you use.
