I have an Easy Lacy Crochet Scarf pattern for you today! This free pattern is beginner friendly, and a relaxing crochet project to make.
An easy open lace pattern is used to create this delicate crochet scarf. Perfect for draping as a light evening wrap, or winding around your neck as a statement scarf. I choose to make my scarf extra long (I am tall) but you can choose to make your version the length that works for you.
I fell for the beautiful Indigo and petrol blue shades in this lace-weight yarn, and knew that a crochet lacy scarf was the perfect project for it. I choose to use a 3.5mm crochet hook to keep the pattern open and loose, but you may prefer to use a 3.00mm hook – make a swatch and see what works best for your tension.
You can use fingering-weight yarn if you prefer – lace-weight yarn can seem intimidating at first but don’t be afraid to try it as it makes the most lovely crochet fabric! The pattern is easily adaptable and you can find some tips in the Notes section.

Notes
- The scarf is worked from the bottom up in rows. The length can be adjusted by working more or fewer pattern repeats. I choose to add a few rows of dc and filet to break up the lace pattern but you can omit them if you prefer
- The pattern would work beautifully with fingering weight yarn (approx. 600m) – just make sure you finish on row 9 of the four row lace repeat, before you continue to the solid/filet section.
- Includes written instructions and a chart.
- Free pattern written in US crochet terms.
- Ch 2 at the beginning of a row counts as 1 dc
- Gauge is not important.
- Multiple is 6 sts + 3

March 16, 2020 at 7:00 pmI made this for my mom as a birthday present. I ended up using a 2mm hook though with a lace weight baby silkpaca yarn, since I wanted it to be slightly tighter with more defined stitches but still airy. I also adapted it to be an infinity scarf by ending on row 9 and seaming it to the beginning, keeping an even number of lace blocks amongst the solid bands. The pattern was very easy to follow and turned out beautifully!

March 11, 2021 at 8:51 pmTo be sure before I begin, this pattern is worked across the 12 inch short end. Not the length. Is this correct? It may seem like a rather stupid question but I had a stroke awhile back and my short term memory doesn’t always catch on fast. Thanks so much. Beautiful work.

March 11, 2021 at 10:39 pmNot a silly question at all! That is correct, you will work across the width of the scarf. Wishing you well x
