Asymmetrical Scarf Crochet Pattern
Asymmetrical Scarf Crochet Pattern
Our newest release, the Asymmetrical Scarf crochet pattern is here! This can be either a summer weight or winter weight scarf, depending on the yarn used.
When I designed this pattern, I was wanting something different than the traditional scarf. I love the mod scarves, but I really wanted to test my skills.
The Asymmetrical Scarf has a pointy end and a wide end. It curves inward, exposing stair-like “steps” on the outer edge. You can put tassels on the ends or leave it as it is. Either way, it looks awesome.
I originally used Lion Brand’s Mandala yarn, which is labeled as a medium weight yarn. However, as most of us that use that yarn know, it’s more like a DK yarn. I recommend using a DK weight yarn for either summer or winter, and just choosing a different blend.
By blend, I mean acrylic, cotton, alpaca, whatever you prefer.

You’ll learn all about short rows in crochet with this pattern. I highly recommend the use of stitch markers while crocheting this pattern. You will need them to keep track of where to stop crocheting for the short rows.
When I made this pattern, I had to count my stitches and rows often, to make sure I didn’t do too little or too many rows or stitches. Especially at first. After a while, you’ll get used to how it looks and can gauge when to start paying attention for doing that next short row.

1 skein Hayfield Spirit DK or 1 cake of Lion Brand Mandala yarn.
5.5mm hook (despite working with light weight yarn, the 5.5mm works great for this project)
