This is another beautiful - and easy - free pattern from Merri Purdy Designs.

My first scarf starting chain was only 15 sts. as I am a VERY loose crocheter, plus I like skinny scarves. I used every speck of the two skeins of yarn. The final dimensons are: 4” x 68” / 10cm x 173 cm. Once finished, I decided the scarf would make a yummy cowl so I sewed the two ends together and yay! instant cowl. It wraps easily 3 times around my neck and still loose enough not to strangle me :)

The second scarf is made from 2 skeins of Sugar ‘n Cream in the Batik colourway and a 6mm hook, same number of stitches and using every speck of yarn. Final size: 4-1/2” x 62” / 11.43 x 152cm.

My second Sugar ‘n Cream Country Stripes (shown in last 2 photos) is made from only 1 skein with 9 starting chains and 5mm hook. Final size is 2-1/2” x 45” (6.35cm x 114cm). It wraps once around my scrawny neck and ties in front nicely.

My most recent version of this lovely scarf (first two photos) is made from one skein of Sugar ‘n Cream solids in Hot Green and dyed with a pinch of dark green dye. 11 chains on 5mm hook = 3” x 56” / 7.6cm x 142cm). I also added a picot edge to the bottom trim.

and another Fresh Bouquet in my favourite colour - orange!
