PDF instant-download of the Against the Wind Scarf Crochet Pattern, named after the song by Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band.

It got its name because of having rows of knit-look stitches standing strong against stitches that reminded me of wind.

This scarf is truly gorgeous, looks so good wrapped around the neck and has a bit of a knit look with boho crochet flair.

The scarf is made in one piece mostly by repeating a set of only TWO rows so you’ll get a hang of it in no time!

The level of this pattern is advanced beginner to intermediate. There are clear instructions and pictures throughout PLUS a bonus stitch guide at the end that covers each stitch used with step-by-step photos.

Stitches used are sc, hdc, dc, sc2tog and a version of the puff stitch - all clearly explained in the pattern. You’ve got this!

Size is customizable, which makes this pattern easy to use with any yarn! To change the length, just chain until you reach the length desired. To change the width, just work more or less repeat rows!
