Why not make your own colourful, cosy scarf? This rustic rainbow scarf pattern is perfect for making a gorgeous accessory to keep warm, or to create as a unique gift.

This pattern is suitable for those new to crochet, or more experienced crocheters looking for a great stash busting project. It uses just one basic stitch!

I used Aran / Worsted weight yarn and a 5.5/I-9 crochet hook, but the pattern will work with any yarn and hook size.

Around 300g of yarn is needed in total. I have detailed the exact quantities and colours of ‘Hobbii Upcycled Alpaca Blend’ for those wanting to make the exact same scarf. You will also need a sewing needle with a decent sized eye.

The pattern comes with a photo tutorial and written instructions, in both US and UK terminology.

The finished scarf measure approximately 18cm x 200cm (excluding tassels).
