Crochet Modern Granny Winter Scarf
This Crochet Modern Granny Winter Scarf hooks up super quick and the pattern design is perfect for the long color changes of Caron Cakes yarn. I used regular Cakes, just a bit over one Cake. My winter scarf weighs 9.7 oz, so I think it would work out great with using just one Caron Big Cake ball of yarn.
Of course, you can use your preferred worsted weight yarn. There are so many color options you can choose for this scarf. Think about school colors and favorite sports teams when planning your colors!

Christina R Nelson says
Love this. Starts outexactly like a Mile A Minute design so it works up quickly. Never would've thought to use this as the base for a scarf. Brilliant!
Wendy says
I can not figure out round 2. I get around the first end then what do i do along the long side to the next end? Where is next chain one space
. Where does the instruction end for first end start for first side start for second end and then start for final side.
Mikey says
I will ask Jeanne to review your comments.
Jeanne says
At this point, it's basically the same as all of the other Modern Granny patterns. Here is one that has a video.
ZK says
Me too! I’ve tried this pattern twice and can’t figure the end of Round 2.
Mikey says
It's a slip stitch to the beg sc when you get back around.
Martha Anne Moore says
No blue button
Mikey says
updated
wendy says
wherer is the pattern, takes you thru first ten rows, then what
Mikey says
You finish off. End of Rnd 10 is the end of the scarf. Then there is a border.
Sam says
This pattern is written in such a confusing way, you're left guessing and trying to put the photos together with your work to figure out what youre actually supposed to do. I even consulted youtube videos to try to figure it out. Absolute disappointment
Mikey says
I will pass the message to Jeanne to see if she can re-write or explain better. Thanks for the feedback.
W says
I cant get oast rounf 1 despite charting it.

Jillian says
This scarf is beautiful, I'm very excited to see how it turns out. I am on the second row and I am also having some rippling. And I too am having difficulty understanding the pattern. Particularly in instances where there's a ch 3 dc or similar. I'm not sure if the 3 belongs to the ch or the dc. And in sentences like "in sp (3 dc, ch, 3 dc) in sp, in next ch-3 sp..." it's very confusing. Also, if this is a duplicate comment I apologize. I was having some difficulty with my browser.
Jillian says
This scarf is beautiful, I hope it turns out nicely. I'm also having a bit of difficulty understanding the pattern. When there's a ch 3 dc, I'm not sure if the 3 belongs with the ch or the dc. The "in sp, in next ch-3 sp (3 dc, ch, 3 dc)" is very confusing to me. I've been able to get by from looking at the pictures and comparing.
Joyce says
I love the scarf, however, mine is rippled. as I find others are having the same problem. I found the instructions confusing, but I think I have them figured out. I am so glad that I took the time to read all the comments. They have been very helpful to me. I just wish there was a way I could post a picture of my WIP scarf.
Jeanne - The Crochet Crowd says
I'm sorry that you found the directions confusing, but glad you have it figured out. Have you joined our Stitch Social group? Lots of sharing of WIPs on that group. 🙂
Joyce says
I have requested membership to the Stitch social group. Thanks for the suggestion.
Jennifer Davis says
I was looking for a scarf pattern and really like this one. I'm going to try it with a Caron Big Cake. I would love to make a toboggan to go with it. Any suggestions for a pattern?
Christine Murray says
Pattern not explained well enough
Christine Murray says
Confused too. Row 81 and 82.
Jeanne - The Crochet Crowd says
How can I help you with row 81 and 82? Can you send a photo and explain what you need help with to inquiry@thecrochetcrowd.com ?
Susan Stone says
Could this be made into a king size blanket? Im using Caron Tea Cakes.Stopped my row at 61.
Mikey, The Crochet Crowd says
For sure...
Cynthia J Crismon says
I made the scarf and love it. Thank you. I'm going to use the pattern with a tea cake and see about making a wrap.
Kate says
So pretty, but it came out ridiculously short, and now I don't have time to finish it for Christmas. So disappointed. I can't figure out what happened as I have the same amount of blocks as the pictures, it's just really short.
Jeanne - The Crochet Crowd says
So what are your finished measurements? Sorry you are disappointed. Can you post a photo?
Kate says
It's about 52x10. I can't figure out how to post a picture.
Kimberly Mason says
Just finished this beautiful scarf! Made it with Caron Big Cake, Cranberry Crisp. I don't like a very wide scarf so I made it through round 5 then the finishing round. It turned out perfect with no problems. Thank you so very much for all the beautiful easy to follow patterns. I would love a suggestion for a hat to match this scarf.
Beth Sutton says
I’m finding the row two is buckling badly and can’t get past the buckling. Please help?
Sara says
Loved this pattern! I found I needed to go up a hook size for the first 81 rows, and then back down to H for the rounds, in case anyone else crochets a little tight like me. 🙂 So excited to wear it, ripples and all! 🙂
Jamie Parrott says
Thank you for posting info on using a larger hook for the first 81 rows to keep rippling to a minimum. The first one I made, I used the hook size the pattern called for and it rippled significantly. I reviewed comments and thought I would give your idea a try for the second one. I used the larger hook for the firat 81 rows, then went back to the pattern hook for the rest. Second scarf turned out much better with minimal rippling.
Sara says
Oh good, I'm so glad! I still had some rippling so I'm about to try a third one going all the way up to a J for the middle. Fingers crossed.
Kristen says
I am 2 years into crochet and just now started reading patterns. The end of row 2 and start of row 3 has me stuck. And has for days. I'm on the verge of frogging or letting it sit in a project bag. Do you have a picture or any further instructions to get me unstuck? Thank you for your time.
Jeanne - The Crochet Crowd says
Row 3 is the same as row 2. There is a photo of row 2 completed.
Kristen says
I'm sorry, I meant to say round, not row. (Thank you for your reply!). I got through the end of round 2 and am completely confused.
Kristen says
If you have a picture of where the end of round 2 goes and how round three starts that would be helpful. Arrows on the finished product or something. I am very frustrated and am on the verge of letting this project rot in a box. Thank you for your time.
Elken says
I agree. On the rounds I don't understand. It tell in Ch 1 so and there isn't a ch1 on round 3
Kristen says
Ellen, I'm relieved I'm not the only one ?
Tina says
What was your gauge like? Specifically, how long is the first 81 rows, before you start working in the round? I stupidly started this with a J hook instead of H, and now I'm worried about running out of yarn. 🙁
Apart from that, though, gorgeous pattern and I'm excited to finish, so thank you!!
Jeanne - The Crochet Crowd says
Mine was 72" at that point, but if you have 2 cakes, you will have plenty of yarn.
Trisha Luke says
This works up fast and easy. Normally it would have taken a day, but I am also a busy mom. I did use the same colors but I think it looks great in any cake you want to use.
Anna says
Hi...love your modern twist... just a little FYI...at the top there is a Pattern tab in red.....I got the PDF pattern downloaded...thankyou.."but" in written Row 82..the 2nd Ch3 is missing... just thought I'd let you know... Thanks..:)
Deb Richardson says
This is beautiful, can't wait to make it!
Nan says
Thanks, this is beautiful! Can't wait to make it. Love that cake yarn.

Nadine says
Does anyone know the actual yardage that this scarf would take. Love working with Caron Cakes yarn and it’s many “cousins”. Would like to make this scarf for my granddaughters and I have some yarn leftovers in my stash. Many thanks
