Hooded Scarf 1972

7/31/2022

For this week I have another pattern from Columbia-Minerva's Teach Yourself to Crochet from 1972. This is perfect for a beginner, not so great for the heat we're expected to get in Minnesota this coming week.

This is just a long scarf that is folded in half with 8 inches sewn by the fold to make the hood. It uses worsted weight yarn and since I liked the color combination in the photo I tried to replicate that with yarn I had. I used vintage Columbia Minerva Performer in Brown, some Red Heart Super Saver in Buff and an unknown yarn in Magenta.

This a one row repeat that goes; sc, chain 2 across and repeats with the next row having the sc in the chain 2 space. This is really easy and works up very quickly with the I hook. I didn’t think the fringe was necessary and I really hate making fringe so I skipped that.

This one fit and it was super easy and fun. This gets a 5 out of 5 stars!

Super cute! I love this one- and lots of practical applications for it. In a few months. Totally five stars.

Hi, Alana! Imagine my surprise to see the Hooded Scarf pattern! I made some of these for gifts in my early crochet days in 1970s. I mostly used the c9lors of light blue and dark brown. I still have the pattern book somewhere around here. I’m sure it would be so much easier for me to work up than it was years ago.
One of these days I hope to connect back up with you and my other CTC friends. I am still experiencing long Covid symptoms almost 2 years later which has changed my life.
Hope all is well with you. Happy hooking! 🧶🧶🧶

That's awesome that you've done this one before. I look forward to seeing you again soon. Hopefully before winter creeps in and it's harder to get out.
