This is a crochet pattern for a simple scarf perfect for everyone! Use up the worsted weight yarn in your stash, give these as gifts this holiday season, or make some scarves to donate to your favorite charitable cause.

You can easily customize the size of the scarf - directions for changing width are included in the pattern.

Free pattern available on my website.

This pattern was originally written to meet the specifications for donation to Operation Gratitude. The pattern includes details on meeting those specifications, but I’ve updated it to include some instructions for everyday wear.

Operation Gratitude is an organization that assembles and delivers care packages full of donated and handmade goodies to troops, veterans, first responders, recruit graduates, wounded heroes & caregivers, and military families. To date, they’ve donated over 2.3 million care packages!
