Fancy a speedy little make that looks fab, uses up your yarn stash, and only needs one stitch? Say hello to my free crochet neckerchief scarf pattern. It’s beginner-friendly, perfect for gifting, and a great “TV project”. I also blocked mine at the end and—shock horror—it made a big difference to the drape! I’ve popped a link to my blocking blog at the end if you want to try it too.
Notes: UK terms. Uses treble crochet (tr) throughout.
