Child's Sparkling Fans Scarf

Sparkling Fans Scarf - Women's

This pretty scarf is made with worsted weight yarn with a strand of sparkle running through it.  The pattern is written out in two widths; one for children and one for adults.  Any worsted weight yarn will work for this pattern.

This stitch pattern uses multiples of 8 + 2.  This means that the stitch uses 8 stitches and you need 2 stitches for the turning chain.  In order to make your scarf wider you would need to chain a multiple of stitches that can be evenly divided by 8, plus 2.  The plus number is only added once. 

For the children's scarf I used 24 chains plus 2, for a total of 26.  For the adult scarf I used 32 plus 2 for a total of 34 chains. 

I used a foundation single crochet to begin my scarves.  If you are not familiar with this stitch you can review it in my post on foundation stitches.
