Article: How to Crochet the Fairy Mist Hooded Scarf

Introduction

Crocheting is a wonderful craft that allows you to create beautiful and functional items with just a hook and some yarn. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of crocheting the Fairy Mist Hooded Scarf. This free pattern is available on our blog, and we will provide the link for you to access it and crochet along with us. So let's dive in and create this enchanting hooded scarf!

Materials Needed

Before we begin, let's gather all the materials you'll need to crochet the Fairy Mist Hooded Scarf. You will require medium weight yarn and a 5-millimeter H hook. The pattern was originally designed using Karen Cakes yarn, which is an 80% acrylic and 20% wool blend. However, for this demonstration, we will be using the Red Heart Super Saver ombre yarn with a 5-millimeter hook. Please note that if you choose to use the ombre yarn, your scarf may be slightly longer than the original pattern. Now that we have our materials ready, let's get started!

Initial Row for the Scarf

To begin crocheting the Fairy Mist Hooded Scarf, we will start with the initial row. Chain 285 stitches, and then skip the first two chains. Work one half double crochet and one double crochet in the next chain from the hook. The first two chains that were skipped are counted as one single crochet. You can choose to work under the back bar, back loop, or back loop and back bar of the stitch. Working under the back bar provides a better foundation row, making it more elastic, stretchy, and gives a nice finished edge. Repeat this pattern across the entire row until you have 283 stitches at the end.

Repeating Rows for the Scarf

After completing the initial row, it's time to repeat the pattern for the Fairy Mist Hooded Scarf. We will be repeating Row 2 until we have a total of 21 rows. Chain 1, turn your work, and count it as a single crochet. Work one half double crochet and one double crochet in the first stitch. Skip the next half double crochet and double crochet stitches, and work one single crochet, one half double crochet, and one double crochet in the next stitch. Repeat this pattern across the row, skipping only the half double crochet and double crochet stitches. At the end of Row 2, you should have 283 stitches. Continue repeating Row 2 until you have completed a total of 21 rows.

Adding the Hood

Now that we have completed the scarf portion, let's move on to adding the hood. Place two stitch markers in your project to mark the beginning and end of the hood. Count over 103 stitches (or 34 sets of 3 stitches) from the last single crochet stitch and place your first stitch marker. Then count over 78 stitches (or 26 sets of 3 stitches) and place the second stitch marker. These markers will serve as references for the hood placement.

Seaming the Hood

To begin seaming the hood, join your yarn with a single crochet in the next single crochet following the first stitch marker. Work one half double crochet and one double crochet in the same stitch. Skip the next double crochet, half double crochet, and work one single crochet, one half double crochet, and one double crochet in the next single crochet. Continue this pattern across the row, skipping the designated stitches and working the single crochet, half double crochet, and double crochet stitches. Repeat this pattern until you reach the last three stitches of the row. Skip the next half double crochet and double crochet, and work one single crochet into the top of the last single crochet of the row. You should have a total of 76 stitches for Row 1 of the hood. Repeat this process for Row 2 and continue until you have completed 15 rows for the hood.

Final Round of Single Crochet

After completing the 15 rows for the hood, turn your project right side out and rejoin your yarn with a single crochet in any stitch on the outer edge. We will now add one final round of single crochet to finish off the project. Work your single crochet stitches evenly around the outside edges of the project. Once you have completed this round, finish off and weave in any remaining ends.

Finishing Touches

You can choose to add a pompom to the back of the hood for an extra touch of whimsy, or leave it as it is for a simple and elegant look. The Fairy Mist Hooded Scarf is now complete and ready to be worn or gifted to someone special. We hope you enjoyed this tutorial and found it helpful in creating your own hooded scarf.
