Ever since I created The Huckleberry Scarf for the January Furls Crochet Along, I’ve been wanting to make a second one with worsted weight yarn. This time I chose Yarn Bee Soft and Sleek in the color Spice. It worked up beautifully with my size K Furls Crochet hook, but I did make some minor modifications to the pattern.
I’m so excited to be able to finally share the free pattern here on my blog. I’ve added the modifications I made as well so you can pick which version you would like to make depending on which yarn you choose.
Here’s what you’ll need to make your very own Huckleberry Scarf:
SUPPLIES
• 628 yards of Lion Brand Color Made Easy in Huckleberry or similar bulky weight yarn
-OR-
928 yard of Yarn Bee Soft and Sleek in Spice or similar worsted weight yarn.
Your favorite Furls crochet hook size K (6.5mm)
Tapestry needle
Tape measure or ruler
Scissors
1 ½ inch button (optional)

Stitch counts at the end of rows tell how many hdc and ch 1 stitches were worked in each row.
Gauge is not essential, but will affect the finished size of the scarf.
GAUGE: 14 stitches X 7 rows = 4” square in half double crochet in BLO
SIZE: Finished scarf measures 53” along top and 42.5” along each side.

FRINGE: (optional)
To add fringe to your scarf you will need to cut at least 162 12” pieces of yarn. This will bring your fringe almost all the way up both sides of the scarf. Feel free to add more if you would like, especially if you added extra rows.
Starting in the front corner, fold two piece of yarn in half and pull the center through the ch-2 sp in the last row from front to back. Pull ends of yarn through the loop and pull tight.
Your Huckleberry Scarf should stay in place by tucking the ends under the main body of the scarf, but you can also attach a 1.5” button to the wrong side of one of the corners so you are able to secure the ends for added security.
Style your new Huckleberry however you like and ENJOY!
