Chunky Scarf Crochet Pattern
So last week I posted my Top Five Hot Mess Mommy Tips and commenter Jaimie (who has a gorgeous name) said she liked the knit scarf in the picture. 
Well, Jaimie, that made my day, because I MADE that scarf! It's actually crochet and it took about 30 minutes, it was so simple I thought it wasn't worth posting, but since you liked it, I thought I'd share. It's actually one long tube that I wrap around my neck three times.
Get the (crazy easy beginner) Chunky Crochet Wrap Scarf Pattern after the jump...
Chunky Crochet Wrap Scarf Pattern
Use chunky yarn (I used my favorite Wool-Ease Thick & Quick in Charcoal available here
Chain it to the length you want (I chained 135 but it's just a tad long..if i did it again i'd do 125). Slip stitch to join into the first stitch.
Row 1: *Ch 3, dc into fourth chain from the hook, dc 134 (or each additional stitch in your length), slip stitch into first stitch to join
Row 2&3: Repeat from *
Weave in ends
Done!
And thanks for the post UCreate!

HOT!
Hm..That's sort of an ingenious way to make a very simple cowl! I have some chunky yarn left over in blue, spring green, orange, and pink. Love my brights! I may just have to try a little color matching and see what I come up with. This is really cute!
I love this!
Very cute! How many balls of yarn did you use?
thanks katie..it was about half of one
i just wanted to add that i didn't block it so it rolls. i like it that way so i can wrap it three times.
I made one last night in Orange and Blue, mostly because I ran out of Blue in the first round. I also decided to only do two rounds instead of three because I have a short neck. haha I posted a blog about it and the free pattern with a link to your website today. Check it out if you'd like. http://browneyedgirl1489.blogspot.com/2010/02/new-cowlscarf-from-leftover-yarn.html
Thanks for the pattern! :)
Thanks for the great project Jaime! I made one today and linked it back to you and Kari at U Create! I ended up using one whole ball of yarn...guage, guage, what is that? :)
I just made another one and used an entire ball of yarn as well. I actually had to pull some yarn from another skein of a different color b/c I didn't have any more of the color I was working with. Whoops! Good thing its just for me. ;o)
ah, i love it! you have a cute name too. ; ) ; )
i can't wait to make one! i have been EYEING the raspberry wool-ease for a long time now. i think i might have finally found a use for it!
i'm sorry about that! i made it a long time ago, it could have been a whole ball, i don't really remember!
I love it! Looking at the wearing photo, I had no idea that was a skinny scarf. How versatile! Thanks so much, I'll be linking.
LOVE this!!! Can't wait to try it!!!
This looks great! Stop by Thursday and link up to Make it, Wear it if you are interested!
Thanks for the tutorial! I made one and I just love it!
Here's a link if you'd like to take a peek:

That's so cool! I can't crochet at all, and I can't knit very well, but I still think I could adapt this to make it out of fleece. Hmmm... gonna think about that for a while.
I have a skein of chunky turquoise I've been wanting to use. It'd be perfect for this. Thank you!
I just made one with some oatmeal colored chunky yarn that I got for $2! I've been crocheting for about, uhmm, three weeks now so this was right up my alley! Thanks!
Thanks so much for this pattern! I've now made 3 of these!! They are just the thing to keep me warm. My two favorites were made with a bulky yarn, N-needle and a starting chain of 125. These I can only wrap 2x around my neck... I did 4 rounds instead of 3 to add a bit more bulk since I was only wrapping twice, and I used about 2.5 balls (50grams each). I just love how they turned out.
