A Mama Craft

With the new snow outside, the kids do not want to do any crafts! All they want to do is play in the snow. Until the novelty wears off, I thought I would post a mama craft.

I made this scarf for Little E.

The pattern is fairly simple. I am by no means a crocheting pro.

Using a worsted weight yarn (I used a baby yarn for softness), chain a multiple of three for how long you want your scarf to be.

Row 1: 2 dc in 3rd ch from hook, *skip 2 ch, 1 sc and 2 dc in next ch; rep from * across, ending with skip 2 ch, 1 sc in last ch. Ch 2, turn.

Row 2: 2 dc in first sc, * skip 2 dc, 1 sc and 2 dc in next sc; rep from *, ending with 1 sc in top of t-ch. Ch 2, turn. Rep row 2 until desired width. Fasten off. Add fringe if desired.

I used a size J hook.

Here is the close-up:

I’ll be back with more kids crafts later! As you can see, the snow is not going to sustain too long.

    Beautiful work! I just finished knitting a baby blanket that I started in order to take my baby home from the hospital. After I delivered her and brought her home, I jokingly said we needed to get started on number four because I missed that deadline.

    So I did finally finish it, and number four is due in April!

    I love your crafts and will be back later to look at more!
