Today, Susanna from Fosbas Designs is today introducing this gorgeous lacy scarf to you! She is such a talented designer and has a gorgeous catalogue of patterns under her belt already. The Phlox Scarf was designed specifically for me to share with you here. Isn’t it gorgeous??
I love the colour transition in the yarn that Susanna used. The stitch combination used is perfect for this lacy scarf design!

Her designs are aimed at helping crocheters become confident in combining simple crochet stitches to create an amazing project. While not at work, you would find susan crocheting or with her kids. For her designing process, check out her social media handle on Instagram or Facebook.
The beautiful crochet stitches used in the phlox scarf was inspired following a convertible vest I designed last year. The combination is perfect and since then, I knew many more projects would be made. Here is the vest – Easy Crochet Vest Pattern – Fosbas Designs
The beauty of this lacy scarf is that you can make yours from the yarn in your stash. The prototype was made using a sport weight yarn but you can make yours using either a sport weight, DK or worsted weight. Below are photos by Loretta and Rebecca who tested this pattern.

Spring is in the Air and this infinity scarf is the perfect accessory!
The bitterly cold winds coming off the North Sea are starting to warm up. The sun is fighting its way through the clouds. Crocuses and snowdrops are starting to bloom!
With Christmas and Valentines over, the children back to school and routines once again established we start to look towards Mothers Day here in the UK and Easter.
But, we still need those transitional accessories to help get us from winter into spring and summer and then from the cooler end of summer to autumn.
My model here, Lyndsey, was such a good sport to model for these photos for me! It was a rather nippy February day when those North Sea winds were trying to compete with the sunshine. Don’t worry – I treated her to lunch afterwards … and she claimed the infinity scarf!
That its why this infinity scarf is so great! It is made with a 5mm hook and #3 (DK) weight yarn. It is lightweight and works up quickly.
Stylecraft Batik Swirl in colour Meadow was perfect for my scarf. The colours in this and the transitions were so beautiful that I didn’t need to add much to the design as the yarn did all of the talking. There is a whopping 601 yards in these skeins!
It isn’t the first time I have used this yarn. And I have never been disappointed with it.
If you have knowledge of the basic stitches then you can make this infinity scarf! There is the 3DcCl (3 double crochet cluster) in this one. However, if you are confident with the double crochet I have some video tutorials on how to do this one on my YouTube channel.(See below for the video’s.)
If you would like an ad free copy of this pattern you for a super low price then click one of the buttons below.
The 3DcCl is worked like a DC3Tog but it is worked all in one stitch instead of over 3 sts.
*YO, insert hook into sts to be worked, YO and pull through, YO and pull through the first 2 loops on your hook. * Rep from * to * twice more. YO pull through all 4 four loops on your hook.
Are you ready for the pattern?
Gauge is not important for this project as you are using your scraps and it is a scarf – simply increase the number of repeats if you want it wider.
My scarf was approximately 6” wide by 54” in circumference.

The Susan Set was designed for you to make for yourself. Of course, you can make it to gift or donate, but I think as crocheters we should make more for ourselves!
Most of the crocheters I know make things and gift them. Or they start making something for themselves and it is ‘claimed’ by a friend or relative. If we are lucky we get to keep the odd cowl or hat we make; we made it while no-one was looking and we REALLY needed one!

A few weeks before Christmas my youngest sister, Susan, asked me to make her some more face scrubbies for Christmas. If that was all she had asked for I was going to design some especially for her. So you see, this set came about because I was making it for someone else! But then I made a set for me too.
The scrubbies took me what felt like only a few minutes to design and I found them fun to make. Before I knew it I had made about 20 of them with my cotton yarn scraps. Then I had a message asking me to make some for Susan’s friend, Emily. I showed them to my sister in law a day or two later and she wanted some. And viola! Suddenly I had 3 gifts ticked off my to make list.
With the popularity of this design I had to write it down so that I could share it with you all. My fabulous friend, Anita, tested the patterns for me.
Initially I was going to turn this into a spa set, but I already have the Farmhouse Spa Set (which is free on the blog post). I looked at what the Farmhouse Spa set didn’t have and had an urge to make a hand towel and matching washcloth. (I did not have time to add an eye mask, so that will be added later. If you purchase via Ravelry you will automatically get the updated pattern once it has been added!) The idea being that you could take these items easily in a bag to your local Spa when you treat yourself, or use them to pamper yourself at home!
Make these your special set – only used by you for a little bit of self-pampering and make yourself feel special. You absolutely deserve it.
What does the PDF Pattern include?
5mm (H) crochet hook
Scissors
Tapestry needle
Stitch markers to note the first and last stitches off the row (optional)
240-260 yards of #4 weight cotton yarn. I love the Memento cotton from WeCrochet (I made my set in the Moonshadow colourway for this one) and their Dishie Cotton is also fabulous and quite soft to work with.
