I made mine 130cm long. I'd think 130 to 150cm is a good length. That's around 66 shell rows using a medium 4 yarn with 6.5mm hook. It took about 300 metres/ 250g of Lion Brand Landscape yarn (blue lagoon). It's so beautiful and a mother's day gift for my mum. She loved it. Thank you so much for creating this video!
I can't thank you enough for this tutorial and the gloves one!!!!! The fact that you explained how we should start the next row after the 5th one made it much easier to follow. I tried a similar pattern once and it ended up being very wonky because they didn't explain how we should go after the 5th row.
I just placed an order for this yarn and received it about two weeks ago. I absolutely love it and it has become my fav yarn of all time topping RH Unforgettable. This yarn is prettier and less expensive than Unforgettable. I’m fixing to place another order. I live in the US and shipping was very reasonable. You won’t regret this purchase. It’s less than $3USD per skein. Now I have a new pattern to use my new yarn with. This is exactly the pattern I was looking for for Christmas scarfs for family. Thanks! 💗🧶☀️
Amazed that I was able to fumble my way through this! Thank you for your clear instructions and patience, I was able to work along with you, pausing and rewinding where needed. Great tutorial, thank you!
I so appreciated having the diagram to follow! You don't see it that often and yet it is so much easier to use, IMHO! Thank you for your clear instructions. I practiced with some cheap inferior yarn until the Boho Spirit arrived from the UK. Can't wait to get started!
Robin I’ve just learned how to do a hex granny and then I saw your scarf and I sat watched it first and then I did the pattern along with you and I am over the moon because I kept up with you. So now I am going to follow your pattern and continue with row 2. You explain It very clearly. This by far is the most adventurous project I’ve taken on. Thank you.😂👍💕🇺🇸
I am diving into this project. This is beautiful. I am using Mandala "Wizard" color way. Can't wait to get started. Thank you so much for such great tutorials. I couldn't have learned to crochet without you. Persistence, persistence, and the love of creating. Again, thank you.
Love this stitch, but I have yet to be able to remember what I am doing. I guess I will spend hours listening to your instructions. :-) I also made a nice scarf for my step-daughter using the feather stitch that I learned from you. She loved the texture and was impressed. Thank you for helping me impress my step-daughter.
I like this pattern very much, and now i'm doing this work for cowl, but it is round, it is beautiful. So, thank you for sharing us this pattern tutorial.
God you are amazing, I understand very clear all your patterns even I copy it!! Great for me, now I forget what I was doing but with the pattern in paper is more easy for my old brain . Thank you I’m very happy that I found you
@@HookedbyRobin do you have any pattern reccomendations to use with this boho spirit yarn? i cant seem to find any myself that mention it specifically besides this one
It depends what you want to make really?🤗 But this one uses boho spirit yarn: www.hookedbyrobin.com/blog/2017/09/fantail-shell-stitch-fingerless-gloves.html
This is a lovely infinity scarf 🧣 and tour tutorials are good I would have liked to have seen another round of the four repeat rows as I got very confused but I managed it in the end. I have had to stop as I don’t know how to finish.
Hi Robin, this looks like the pattern to use with my BoHo spirit yarn. I sent you an email asking for a suggestion but I think I have found it. I think I have enough for the gloves too. Thanks Tina. xx
Hey Robin❣️You are such a great teacher!! I slowed the speed to 75% and I was able to CAL with you, no problem 😉 I wanted to ask you if you ever use Red Heart Unforgettable yarn, because it is giving me such a difficult time. It’s rather fiddly, which is a shame because the yarn is so beautiful but my stitches aren’t symmetrical. I am up to the 5th row and my work just looks a mess. Twice I have had to frog, which didn’t work and I had to cut off the first 4 rows TWICE…. Very frustrating. It says 4 medium weight, but I think it’s roving, getting very thin then down the way getting all thick and puffy. I think 💭 I am about ready to pull my hair out. But, I love your tutorials so much, have made many projects with you. So, thank you so much. You are a gem❣️🫶🏼✌🏼🤩
hi ,,i love watching you do all your crochet ,,i just want to no have you ever crochet one of these but with hood on it ,,i seen a lady one day wearing one ,,ive been trying to find one or pattern but cant ,,
i realy full in love with your channel and your projects its just keep me happy and made my mood .. i am sorry if my english is not ok or bad that is not my language
Hi Robin, love your tutorials, you describe everything so well even I can follow along. I am quite a newbie crocheter. Just wondered if you had a fantail shell hat pattern as it would go well with the gloves and scarf and make a lovely gift. Thanks in advance.
hi there. I can't seem to find the yarn on the link to snuflle bean yarn. There are different projects and stiches but I don't know where to look for the actual yarn, can anyone help me? I would love to order some of that boho yarn! 😀 Thank you!
My friend and I was told about you in a wool shop.. Even though you use USA terms you are so clear.. Thank you so much.. You are my favourite and I can understand your voice too.. So precise. My cats are the same. Charlie my white female thinks she controls the tension... What do you use for a ball holder whilst you are crocheting away from the camera .. And your furr baby wants some mittens 🐾🐾🐾
Can you do this fantail shell stitch in a poncho design? I absolutely love this and would love to wear it as a poncho since I don't wear scarves. I already made the fingerless 🧤 in three color ways.😊
This pattern is absolutely amazing and this video is excellent!!!!❤ On a venting note: I really struggled with this yarn (bought the same as in the video) some parts of the strand were extremely thin and some very thick. 😢 is it just me? Am I missing something? Or is that just how some yarn is?
I had the same issues but the colors are so magnificent, I decided to suck it up. I used the Suzette Stitch and it looks absolutely amazing. Now using the same yarn (different color) and using the Sieve Stitch and it is coming up a treat. Thank you Robin !!!
Hi, could someone please tell me how I find the blog for the pattern? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Thanks heaps for the tutorial... I absolutely love it. ❤️
Hi Robin, was wondering if you can make a hat to go with the scarf and gloves. I love both patterns and will be making this for a Christmas gift and need a hat/beenie/toboggan to go with it. Expecially if it has earmuffs on it. Much appreciated.. Thanks.... You are the best. Gail from Alabama USA
Hmmm not going to lie, hats are not my speciality - I struggle with sizing a bit 🤔 it's certainly something I can play with and have a go but not sure I can guarantee I'll have any success! 😂
Hi Robin, I'm considering doing this pattern for some new multi coloured yarn, which is 150g, 375m long. Would this be enough? Also is it possible to do the shell pattern for the bottom half on each end and then treble crochet or double crochet the remainder? Thanks. Hug from Tasmania 💞
@@HookedbyRobin weight as my comment and also to add, is this pattern going to make my scarf/shawl bulky? I need to do a sample but hoping it's ok. I'm going to use a 4.5-6mm hook too. Is that suitable? x

For the scarf I used 1 and a half balls of Boho Spirit 👍 For the gloves, I can get multiple pairs from 2 balls (I buy 2 balls of the same colour so I can colour match them - sometimes I'm lucky and both balls match so I have zero wastage meaning I can get about 3 pairs of gloves; other times I'm not so lucky and get 2 pairs!)
Hi Candy, I am sorry about that - unfortunately she does not sell that yarn anymore but if you google cygnet boho spirit yarn there is lots on there and all beautiful shades.😍🧶
I’ve now made five pairs of the Fantail Shell Fingerless Gloves - one to my classroom LSA who couldn’t believe they were handmade! - and am now onto crocheting this scarf for myself. When it comes to stitching the ends of the scarf together, should I end on a row with the HDC then sew the ends together with a needle, or is there a crochet stitch I should use to attach the ends together that you could recommend?
I'm making an infinity scarf with this amazing pattern - thank YOU! How long should I make it though? I know I have to seam it together, but I just don't know how many rows to make it. Thank you!
Robin, I know this video is so old, but I have a question. I am almost at the end of where I want my length on this scarf. Which row do you suggest ending in, so the whip stitching join works out best? Thank you so much for your response.
Thank you for making that fun and easy. Row two starts at 12:12

Absolutely stunning! I don't have a 4.5 but have a 4 and a 5... is it better to go up or down?
Totally up to you! I personally would go up but that's because I crochet quite tightly anyway - have a play and see which works best for you! :)
