20. 1tr, 1picot (x5) in the same ch space, 1sc in the next ch sp, keep repeating this all the way around. Your corners might be different to mine but if you need to do 5tr in the ch space and then another 5tr in the next skipping the sc do that. Whichever makes your corner lay nicely.

How to Crochet a Scarf in Ribbon Lace


 Hi there,
This scarf is done in what is called Ribbon Lace. You crochet by turning your work around, work that side then turn around again, doing half motifs. It is not for beginners, but never hold back on trying something new!

HOW TO CROCHET A SCARF IN RIBBON LACE

Red Heart Boutique, Unforgettable, color is Parrot
Hook size 5mm, 8 US 
This is a more advanced project


Picot – 3ch, sc in the 1st ch,
Sc = single crochet,  Dc = double crochet,  Sp = space,  Tr = treble,  St = stitch, 
Ch = chain,  * * =repeat work in between the stars,  Tog = together,  yo – yarn over, ss = slip stitch

3 Treble Together = *Wrap yarn around hook x2, insert hook into st (read pattern for either same st or into the next st), yarn over, bring a loop thru, yarn over, thru 2 loops, thru 2, leave rest on hook*, repeat till 3 trebles done, yarn over and thru all remaining loops.



1.  Make a magic circle with 22dc (ch3 for 1st dc), ss into top of beg ch3

2.  ch5 (standing for 1dc and 2ch),  1dc, ch2 in each stitch all the way around = 22 dc, ss into the 3rd ch.

3.  ss into 1st ch sp, ch 3, 2Tr tog in the same space, 3ch,
 *3Tr tog in the same space, 3 ch in each space around* end with 3ch, ss into the top of the 3tr (you should have 22 Tr clusters)

4.  ch15, sc in 1st ch sp,
 4sc in each of the next 6 ch spaces,
2sc in the next ch sp, 1 picot, 2sc all in the same sp, repeat this till you have 13 picots, your last 2 ch spaces just do 4sc in each, ss in first ch (FIRST MOTIF)

5.  start with a slip knot (new yarn)  and do a sc in the sc you made in the 1st ch sp, ch 2 (sc counts as the 3rd one)
Skip 3sc and sc in the next st, turn your work around (to the wrong side of your work) and do 14dc in the large ch sp (the ch3 we did on previous row counts as the 1st dc) so you should have 15dc in the ch sp
Ch3, sc in the 4th sc, ch 2,Turn your work around,
 dc in the first dc (in the 15ch sp), ch2,* dc in the next dc, ch2* do this all the way around and you should have 15dc (including the one shown in video)
sc into the 4th sc, ch3, skip 3sc and sc into the 4th sc
ch3, turn your work around,

6.  3Tr tog in the 1st ch sp, ch 3, *3Tr tog, ch 3 in the next sp)* (14 clusters at the end) end with ch3
Sc in the 4th sc, turn work around,
Ch1, sc in the ch sp, picot, sc 2 in the same sp,
2sc in the next sp, picot, 2sc in the same sp, repeat this till you have 8 picots,
4sc in the next sp, repeat this in the next 7 spaces (motif done)

THIS YOU REPEAT OVER AND OVER
7.  Sc in the sc (above first tr) and sc in the next sc
ch13, turn work around, sc in the 1st sc,
ch3, sc above the next Tr, Turn work around,

8.  11dc in the circle(13ch) the ch3 from previous round is the 1st dc (12 all together)
Sc above 1st Tr,  ch3, sc above the next Tr, Turn work around,
Ch2, dc in the 1st dc (the dc you made in the 13ch circle), *ch2, dc in the next dc*, keep doing this and you should have 12dc, end with the dc,
Sc above the next Tr,  ch3, sc above the next Tr, turn work around,

9. ch3, *3Tr Tog in the next space, 3ch* keep doing this till you end up with 11 Tr (end with Tr not ch3)
Sc above the next Tr, ch3, sc above the next Tr, turn work around,
Ch1, sc into the very 1st space (made by the ch3 of previous round) picot with ch3 in same space, 2sc in the same sp,
*2sc into the next sp, picot, 2sc in the same sp* (rep this until you have 5 picots in the 5 spaces) and then you do *4sc in the next space* repeat the 4sc till you have 7 of the 4sc spaces.

10. This is 7-9 repeated (you just keep doing this until scarf is length you want)

How to Knit a Lacy Scarf, with a Crocheted Border



Hi there,

I will be showing you how to knit a lacy scarf, which has a crocheted border around it. It is very light and delicate and is soft and comfortable to wear. I hope you enjoy making it. Feel free Like me on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/GillysCraftWorld


HOW TO KNIT A LACY SCARF
WITH A CROCHETED BORDER
This is made with Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable – Cappaccino – yarn size is a 4
Knitting Needles size 5mm or size 8
K = knit          K3tog =knit 3 together       P = Purl    yon = yarn over needle   * *= knit what is in between the stars and repeat that till the end
Ch = chain     dc = double crochet
A. Cast on a multiple of 6 plus 2 stitches, I casted on 30 plus 2 = 32 total
1. K1,* k3, yon, k3tog, yon,*, rep to last stitch, k1  (this row don’t forget that yon before you knit the last stitch)
2. Purl
3. k1, *yon, k3tog, yon, k3* rep to last stitch, k1
4. Purl
Rows 1-4 are the pattern that you keep repeating till your scarf is as long as you want it be.
5. All 4 rows shown on video in a quick version
6. Undoing/unpicking a few rows without pulling off all the stitches off the needle

CROCHETING THE BORDER – using a 5mm hook – crochet loosely
7. Start in any corner and ch5, *dc, ch2* in the holes, when you get to a corner do a few extra dc, ch2 (I did about 2 in each corner) – it depends on the yarn you used and the size hook, do it fairly loose though. Go all the way around.
8. When you get to the ch5 you started with, do ch3 and ss into the 3rd ch.

9. Ch3, 1dc in the ch sp, 1dc in the dc from previous row, *1dc in the ch sp,1 dc in the dc from previous row* repeat all the way around. If your corners pull then do extra dc’s in the corner.
