Textured Trails Pocket Scarf

"The Textured Trails pocket scarf features an easy two-row repeat making the pattern suitable for confident beginners. A puff stitch variation is worked around the post two rows below and these stitches alternate with rows of single crochet to add texture and visual interest. The scarf is worked across the width. The pockets are worked lengthways at the ends of the scarf in a technique similar to how ribbing is worked in garments but with single crochet through both loops. After folding, the sides are neatly sewn for a polished finish. The self-striping yarn make this a great project for using up yarn from your stash, giving new life to your leftover skeins! /DETAILS Skill level : Confident Beginner/Easy US Terminology /MATERIALS Aran Weight (category #4); 1025 yds / 938 meters 5mm / H-8 Crochet Hook Stitch Markers Scissors Yarn Needle /FINISHED SIZE Scarf measures approximately 71” Length X 9.5” Wide Pockets measure approximately 8” Length X 9.5” Wide /STITCHES AND ABBREVIATIONS USED Single Crochet (sc) Double Crochet (dc) Slip Stitch (sl st) Chain (ch) Each (ea) Stitch/es (st/s) Below (bel) Repeat (rep) Right Side (RS) "
