Well, the Polar Vortex arrived this week and it was so super cold for the South!! We did miss out on all the snow, though, unfortunately. My kids were so excited because the weather channel was forecasting 1-3″ (which is a lot for us!) and they wanted to build a snowman. As the day got closer, the forecast kept changing to less and less snow until we got absolutely nothing! It was a bummer, and we still had to deal with the cold. Luckily, though, we all have plenty of knitted and crocheted winter wearables to keep up warm when we go out!
The most popular pattern on my blog is the Duchess Baby Blanket and I wanted to use the same stitch pattern for a new project. I really loved this Red Heart Colorscape yarn and thought that it would be a perfect match. I’m so thrilled with how it turned out! The Duchess Lace Stitch gives it a nice scalloped edge on the ends, too. Take a look:

So I will keep plugging away at the winter wearables while planning all my spring projects. Tennessee weather truly is bipolar, though, and this week it’s supposed to get up to 69 degrees!! We dress in layers around here. 😉
Duchess Lace Scarf
What You’ll Need
Yarn: Red Heart Colorscape, 2 skeins Mykonos
Hook: J-10 (6.00mm)
Gauge: Not crucial for this project
Finished Size: Approximately 4 1/2″ wide x 72″ long.
PATTERN
Ch 19.
Row 1: (2 dc, ch 3, sl st) in 4th ch from hook, *sk next 2 ch, (2 dc, ch 3, sl st) in next ch; repeat from * across; turn.
Row 2: Ch 3, *(2 dc, ch 3, sl st) in next ch-3 sp; repeat from * across, ending with dc in top of turning ch; turn.
Repeat row 2 until desired length (my scarf measures 72″ from beginning and I had enough yarn from the second skein left over to knit a hat!).
Fasten off.
Bottom Border: Join yarn at bottom corner. Work row 2 across foundation chain, working in the chain spaces created by skipping chains on the first row.
Fasten off.
That’s it! This is a super simple pattern repeat with a regal feel. Be sure to check out my library of free crochet patterns.
Happy Crocheting!

I love this scarf, is there any possible chance that you could make/write up a pattern for a matching crocheted hat? I don’t knit, and I would love a matching hat to go with the scarf. 🙂
Wishing there was a quick print button for the pattern.
Me too – like there is on a lot of recipe blog sites.
Love this scarf but hate working in those ends. Try this: work row one and then turn and work row one again on the opposite side of the chain, then continue with the pattern. Now you have a nice border and no end to work in. Would love to see a matching hat pattern. Thanks !!!
That is such a great idea! I love it!
I would like to make a shawl using this pattern. Any idea how many stitches to chain or what is the pattern repeat to add stitches? THANK YOU!
Hi Carol! This is a multiple of 3 plus 1 so you can make it as large or small as you’d like it to be by adjusting the chain length. 😀
