100 yard dash - free crochet scarf pattern
Materials required:
Approx 100 yards / 90ish metres 8ply DK yarn
5mm crochet hook
tube /dowel (I used the tube from an empty roll of cling wrap)
What to do:
Row 1: ch 182
Row 2: hdc in 3rd ch from hook, hdc across
Row 3: DO NOT CH, DO NOT TURN!! Draw up loop and slip over tube, insert hook into next stitch to the right, draw up a loop and slip it over the tube. Continue drawing up loops of yarn through each successive stitch across the work.
Row 4: Remove tube from loops (this is the fun bit!). Form a slip stitch around the top of the first 4 loops (we're working from left to right again now). Hdc x 4 in these loops. Pick up the next 4 loops and hdc x 4 in these loops. Continue in this manner across the work. Turn.
Row 5: ch 1, sc across work. Turn.
Row 6: *sl st, (sc, ch) in next st, sc, sl st** .... repeat from * to ** across work.
Weave in ends and you're done!
This tutorial for broomstick lace may be helpful for working row 3 :)

Fantastic scarf! And the video tutorial for broomstick lace is a great bonus. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you so much for the pattern and tutorial! I want to try broomstick lace, but I've been rather intimidating. Your explanation is fantastic!
Great pattern! After watching your tutorial I am hooking away at my lovely broomstick lace scarf. Couldn't find a needle big enough so improvised with a permanent marker pen. Thanks for helping me learn a new technique.
Love this - bold use of broomstick lace! I featured a link to it on my blog this morning: http://www.mooglyblog.com/beautiful-broomstick-lace-10-free-patterns/
