Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky weight yarn in a soft yellow color
• Hook: 10mm crochet hook
• Scissors: For cutting the yarn
• Tapestry needle: For weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Chain 20: Start by making a slip knot on your hook. Then, chain 20 stitches. This will be the foundation of your scarf.
2. Row 1: Starting in the second chain from the hook, yarn over and pull through to create a half double crochet (hdc) in that chain. Continue to hdc in each chain across until you reach the end of the row. After the last stitch, turn your work to begin the next row.
3. Row 2: Chain 1 to begin. Now, you will create the ribbed texture. *Yarn over, insert your hook around the post of the next stitch (this is called front post double crochet or fpdc), yarn over again and pull through (you should have three loops on your hook). Yarn over and pull through the first two loops, then yarn over again and pull through the last two loops to complete the fpdc. Next, for the next stitch, yarn over and insert your hook around the post of the following stitch (this is called back post double crochet or bpdc), yarn over and pull through (again, you should have three loops on your hook). Yarn over and pull through the first two loops, then yarn over again and pull through the last two loops to complete the bpdc. Repeat from * across the row until you reach the end. Turn your work.
4. Repeat Row 2: Continue repeating Row 2 until your scarf measures approximately 70 inches or your desired length. Make sure to keep your tension consistent to maintain the ribbed texture throughout.
5. Fasten Off: Once you have reached your desired length, cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Pull the tail through the last loop on your hook to secure it. This will prevent your stitches from unraveling.
6. Weave in Ends: Using your tapestry needle, weave in any loose ends from the beginning and end of your scarf. This will give your scarf a clean and polished look.

Congratulations! You have successfully created your very own chunky ribbed crochet scarf. Enjoy wearing it or gifting it to someone special!
