PapioCreek Rib Stitch Scarf Free Crochet Pattern

I recently had a customer wanting a set of 3 scarves for gifting. I needed something quick to make so I could have the scarves done before Christmas. I also needed a scarf that looked great and would be a suitable gift for men and women. And so the PapioCreek Rib Stitch Scarf free crochet pattern was born.

If you would like to purchase an Ad Free .PDF of the PapioCreek Rib Stitch Scarf, if can be found on Ravelry and on Etsy.

I love the textured stripes in my PapioCreek Rib Stitch Beanie and my PapioCreek Rib Stitch Neck Warmer. And the best part!?!? Thinner textured stripes on one side of the fabric and thicker textured stripes on the other side of the fabric, making a reversible fabric!

For the PapioCreek Rib Stitch Scarf you will need:

Yarn- 12oz/313yd or 340g/285m of a bulky weight yarn (#5). I used Red Heart Soft Essentials

You could use a different bulky weight yarn or even use a different weight yarn all together, but you may need more or less yarn depending on what you choose to use.

Hook– US size L crochet hook (8.0 mm)

If using a different weight yarn, use the hook size recommended on the yarn label, just know that you may need to adjust the number of stitches in the foundation row and may need to adjust the number of rows you complete.

Extras-yarn needle, scissors and measuring tape (optional).
