Free Harry Potter Inspired House Scarf Crochet Pattern

Free Crochet Pattern : Harry Potter Inspired Super Bulky House Scarf 

 

 

 I have been crocheting for over 20 years, but I still love the simple easy ones the best.



I finally got sorted out in HPKCHC! Sir Hat decided to put me into Slytherin! Imagine that! ^_^

I designed this super bulky house scarf last term for Herbology class.


I am offering it as a free Ravelry download now!

(Mainly because I hate paying for patterns!)

Whether you choose Slytherin or a different house I have included suggested colorways for all the houses in the pattern. It comes out to be pretty large, but you could use worsted weight with a H hook to get a smaller scarf.


Here is my boys tangled up in it like the Devil's Snare. They had way too much fun testing it out!


I would love to see your photos if you make this scarf. I would love to feature your photos on the Ravelry pattern page.

Please leave some comments below! I would love to hear your thoughts!

Peace,
Candi

Super Bulky Tam Tutorial

Today, instead of working on my t-shirt blanket, I am starting a new project. (In case you missed my last post, I ran out of t-shirts and am waiting for more.)


I have been looking for the perfect dread tam for a few months now. So I decided this was a great time to make my ideal tam. The cold weather is fast approaching, so I will be using super bulky Lion's brand yarn on this project.


In case you need a refresher on Double Crochet (DC) you can find it at About Crochet. Also a refresher for a decrease (Single Crochet 2 together or Sc2tog) can be found at About crochet.


I love the way it turned out! Here is the pattern...



Ch 4 (counts as first DC).  DC in 4th ch from hook.  DC 10 more times in same stitch (12 dc total.)

Ch 3 (counts as first DC).  DC in same st. *2 DC in next st.  Repeat from * around.

Ch 3 (counts as first DC).  DC in same st.  *1 DC in next st, 2 DC in next st.  Repeat from * around.

Ch 3 (counts as first DC).  DC in same st.  *1 DC in next 2 st, 2 DC in next st.  Repeat from * around.
Ch 3 (counts as first DC).  DC in same st.  *1 DC in next 3 st, 2 DC in next st.  Repeat from * around.

Ch 3 (counts as first DC.)  DC in every dc around.  Repeat this row 6 more times.

Ch 2 (counts as first sc).  Sc2tog around.

Ch 3 (counts as first HDC). HDC in every st. Repeat this row 2 more times.


This will give you a final tam exactly like the one I made. Here are some shots of my tam:
