Abbreviations

  • dc = double crochet
  • st = stitch
  • sts = stitches
  • sl st = slip stitch
  • ch = chain
  • chs = chains

Crochet Stitches

Slip Stitch (sl st)

  1. Insert hook into next stitch.
  2. Yarn over and pull the yarn through the stitch and through the loop on your hook

Double Crochet (dc)

  1. Yarn over & insert hook in next stitch.
  2. Yarn over and pull up a loop. You will have 3 loops on your hook.
  3. Yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You will have 2 loops on your hook.
  4. Yarn over and pull through remaining 2 loops on your hook.

Corner-to-Corner Method (C2C)

Corner to corner (C2C) crochet is a technique where you crochet “squares” in diagonal rows, starting in the bottom right corner and ending in the the top left corner. Each row is increased by one square. Each square in the graph = chain 3 + 3 double crochet.

Increases

Increases are made at the end of each row. To make an increase you will chain 6, dc in the 4th chain from your hook and dc in each of the 2 remaining chains.

You will have a chain 3 + 3 dc square. This is your first square for the beginning of the next row. Turn your work and join with a slip stitch to the chain 3 space from the last square made. 

Decreases

The first decreases for both the width and length will create corners.

To make a decrease, when you reach the end of the row, you will turn your work and slip stitch across the 3 dc’s in the last square made. Join with a slip stitch to the chain 3 space and chain 3 + 3 dc.

Pom Pom Instructions

Photos are from my Santa Hat.

Firmly and evenly wind your yarn around each set of arches. After the first set of arches, close them and then wind your yarn around the second set.

Cut the yarn between each set of arches.

Use a scrap piece of yarn to tie the pom pom in place. I recommend you double/triple knot it.

Carefully open the arches.

Use a Hot melt adhesive to place a dab of glue in the center of the pom pom. This will help prevent it from unraveling.

Fluff your pom pom and trim any long ends.

Use a tapestry needle to attach your pom poms (make 4) to the corners of your scarf.
