Corner To Corner Scarf
This scarf is inspired by Red Heart’s Free Pattern for a Corner to Corner Afghan. See the bottom of this article for the links and video instructions for that afghan. I am not taking responsibility for designing this pattern. By using Red Heart’s pattern and the corner to corner concept, you can make unlimited triangles and 4 sided projects. Corner to corner doesn’t mean the project needs to be square.
Details
- Scarf measures 61″ long by 6″ wide.
- The corner to corner stitch gives a visual look of boxes going across the scarf. There is a total of 7 boxes for the width.
Materials Used
- Size 6.5 mm or Size K Crochet Hook
- 2 Balls of Red Heart Boutique Treasure, Colour is called Tapestry.
- 1 Ball of Red Heart Boutique Changes, colour is called Grey. (border)

I’d like to see some replies to comments where questions weren’t addressed on here and the actual youtube video of this pattern. Some people are waiting for you on yarn weight questions and I had one about substitution possibilities if we can’t get RH Boutique yarns for whatever reason. I see this as an ongoing occurrence lately, do you not have time to reply? Thx!
I’m trying my best but unfortuantely, between the help desk, Facebook messaging and this, I’m losing the battle in keeping up. Let me revisit this blog post and see how badly I am behind. Thanks for the heads up.
You can pretty much use any weight of yarn as long as the hook compliments the yarn. Look at the yarn ball label and see the hook size or if you are experienced crocheter, just make your best judgement call.
I watched your video this morning and found it easy to follow. I am making the scarf and started on a shawl. Thank you
Perfect instructions and great voice. always impressed with your personality too. Love the Mikey!!!
You always make patterns so easy to understand. Thank you Mikey. Much love to you and Diva Dan!
Exactly spot on. Love you work
Hi Mikey, I was trying to decide on the color for my C2C scarf and saw where you used a bulky yarn but that it was one that had different textures. I’m still new at matching yarns and was wondering your thoughts on a regular bulky yarn to go with Bernat mosaic yarn used for the scarf. I can’t decide, but I did try to use the same color for the border and it just didn’t look right, so I could use some advice, I have a color that looks perfect but not sure because of it being bulky, your advice would be appreciated…thanks so much Mikey for all you do!
