I created this scarf as a quick project to wear with my black dress and new tall boots. I wanted something I could crochet super fast and that was very easy.
The Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable yarn is absolutely beautiful and turned this simple scarf into something special. Perfect for the fall weather we are having here – as evidenced by the beautiful trees in our backyard.
This project is made entirely of a V-stitch repeat that consists of a double crochet, chain 1, double crochet in the same space. It’s so easy to remember and really gives a nice look and texture to the project.
This is by far my most popular pattern on Ravelry and I am simply amazed by how many of you have made Unforgettable One-Skein Scarves of your own.

I love this pattern Amanda! I had 2 skeins of Unforgettable and wasn't sure what to do with them, as I wanted a more traditional scarf pattern….this is perfect! Thank you for sharing! 🙂
amanda
You are so welcome!

I just discovered this yarn, it is so beautiful, but did not know what to do with it except that I wanted a scarf. I found your pattern on a Google search and just love it! Thank you!
Joan Hume
I just completed a wonderful little neck warmer using one skein of Unforgettable in… autumn colors, I forget it's name. 🙂 I crocheted it in crocodile stitch- let me tell you, this yarn's color pattern is perfect for crocodile crochet!

Haven't crocheted in decades, decided to try this. I'm using Sensations Rainbow Boucle (had in my drawer). It is looking awesome and very smooth to use. I love this simple zen pattern! Thanks.
amanda
So glad it's working out well!
Elizabeth
Thank you Amanda for the scarf Pattern, worked up beautiful.
Made my scarf out of Echo never would have expected it to look so pretty.
amanda
So glad it worked out well! This is really one of my favorite yarns.
Hitomi
Loved this quick and easy scarf pattern. Do you have a hat pattern to go with it?
amanda
I don’t have a hat pattern yet – but that is a great idea! I am planning on making one now that you mentioned it. ?
Jessica Gregg
It’s so nice to find a simple yet stunning pattern that actually works up beautiful! Thanks for the free and wonderful pattern. Just curious what the stitch multiple is because I’d love to make a baby blanket or even a shawl ohhh how about a hooded scarf? scoodie, Snoodie lol ? I don’t like eithet word so I’ll say hooded scarf lol maybe use fun fur or eyelash yarn for the hood edging or trim? Ohhhh pretty! Thanks for the inspirations!!
amanda
Hi! Sorry it took me a little bit to write back! This stitch pattern is a multiple of 3 sts + 4. I think your ideas are great and I’d love to see pictures if you make a Snoodie! Haha… I think hooded scarf sounds better, too. 😉
Lisa
Hi, I’m new to crochet and I finally finished the scarf. It was fun to make, however I’m unsure how to do the edging though. Do you have a video on how to do it? I’m a visual learner so watching someone helps alot. Thanks!
amanda
Hi Lisa! So glad you are starting a crochet journey. 🙂 I don’t have a video up yet for the edging. I’ll see what I can do to help you with that part.
Lisa
I figured out the edging…I enlarged the photos on ravelry and could see the stitches. I love this pattern! Thank you!
amanda
Yay Lisa I’m so glad! I meant to make a quick video for you and never got the time to sit down and do it. (It’s hard to film at home with three boys seven and under!) Glad you enjoyed the pattern. 🙂
patricia cripple
love your scarf
amanda
Thanks so much! 🙂
Connie Dexheimer
I am confused with the edging because it says chain 5 sk dc Then chain 1, where should the 5 chain be attached too. Please clarify.
Thank you.
Connie
amanda
Hi Connie,
You should skip the (dc, ch-1, dc) of the V-st, then sc after the V-st. 🙂
Joy Kaberline
Oh I’m so glad I got clarification on this is the comments. Is there a way to add the parentheses to the pattern just in case others find it an issue too?
amanda
Sure! I’ll add them in to clarify.

I used a I hook like it called for but it is 6 inches wide but only 36 inches long. I am down to a E hook & it’s 4 1/2 inches wide. 22 stitches. I hope this works. I love the pattern & the landscapes yarn. Jackie
Cindy
Is there a video showing how to crochet the edging. I see the explanation above. I’m still a little confused.
amanda
I’m sorry, there isn’t a video for that part. This was one of my earliest videos and I have learned a lot since then! 🙂
Wanda
This is a very lovely pattern and you explain it very well. I’m sorry, but I just can’t watch you crochet. I know that is how you learned, but it seems like you put an extra step into your crocheting. and it drives me crazy. Again, I understand that is how you learned. Your tutorials are very good, so I’ll watch as much as I need to to get the pattern. Keep up the good work.
amanda
Hi Wanda,
This is one of my earliest videos. I taught myself how to crochet, so that’s the reason it’s a bit different, but I crochet differently for my tutorials now. Try watching a newer video on the channel and see if that is better. 🙂
