You can achieve a similar look by alternating front post double crochet and double crochet and inverting on the next row.
It's revertible and nice thing if you alternate 2 colors every row: each side has a dominant color.
Made myself a scarf that is light blue with a hint of dark blue on one side, and dark blue with a hint of light blue on the other
First time viewer here. I have been crocheting for 31 years (self taught at 12), long before RUclips. I enjoyed your instructions and did enjoy this pattern. I have so much scrap yarn, I am looking for ways to use it.
You popped up on my feed and I’m so glad you did! Your voice is so calming and lovely to crochet to, it’s like crocheting with a friend lol. You make beautiful patterns and it’s so amazing they’re all free! What a selfless act! Keep up the great work!🥳
You are so sweet Shelby 🥰 Thank you!

Ok just came across this and YOU ARE RIGHT it is fun to do and after awhile it’s mindless ….love mindless 😘😘😘 Thank you
WINNERS ARE:
Alexandra French
Kim Talbert
Sue Moquin
Winners, I have replied to your comment in this video with information on what to do next!
The word fun was said 11 times!
Thank you so much for playing everyone!
This sure was a "fun" one! I think we will have to have another contest soon in here!
Hat pattern is almost complete... I should have it up and ready to go within the next couple of days ☺
______________________________________
.BOY did I overuse the word FUN in this video!
Actually, made me a little annoyed... lol... So I thought, why not have a contest/giveaway for 3 people who come up with the correct number of times I used the word FUN in this video!
How this works, put your guessed number of how many times the word fun was used in this video plus a comment of what you think of this scarf/design! Good or bad! That WILL NOT determine if you win! I PROMISE I love all comments (except when people tell me I talk too much... cuz, I already know that.. LOLOL)
Those who guess the number correctly (if multiple people) will be thrown in a hat. 3 winners will be drawn randomly and will receive a little something "fun" in their mailbox! =D
On a quick side note! After years of suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome and cervical stenosis, I have found the only thing that has given me relief. I have no more pain! It had become almost debilitating to crochet or knit and when one day someone had introduced me to the World's Purest CBD oil, my life was changed forever, for more than just my hand/wrist and arm!
If you are located in an area/country I can ship CBD oil to legally, the winners of this "fun" little contest will receive a sample pack of the World's Purest CBD oil (along with a little something yarny.. and.. of course, fun! 😉)
Those NOT in a CBD oill country will receive a fun yarny gift! 😊
If you would like to learn more about what I personally call, "miracle in a bottle", visit:
www.mypurecbdlife.com, if you have any questions, you can contact me personally at mypurecbdlife@gmail.com and I'll give you my contact info there so we can chat about what ails you and how CBD oil can forever change your life!
CONTEST WILL RUN THROUGH NOVEMBER 30TH
WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED DECEMBER 1ST!
Let the games begin!!
Colleen Hays what was the 1st yarn that had sparkle to it that you said was too dark? It was beautiful
It might be the Yarn Bee Soft & Sleek low-pill fiber yarn. I have it in a grey yarn with silver sparkle. The colorway is Silver Sparkle. I was sure I saw it in red. They have several colors. It feels soft, is 99% acrylic , 1% metallic polyester. 186 yards, 170 meters. I haven’t used it yet, but am planning to soon for a scarf or hat. I also have a Caron Simply Soft Party yarn that I got in Walmart. It is red with a red sparkle. Called appropriately Red Sparkle! It doesn’t seem as soft as the YArn Bee. They are both medium 4’s but the RedHeart is definitely thinner. The Yarn Bee is thicker with a nice twist to the yarn. The RedHeart only has 164 yds. / 150 meters. It is made of the same materials. I am going to try them both. Have fun! 😊🧶
@@shelleymcdaniel42 I'm so sorry! I was going to come back in after digging through to find the sleeve, I tell ya! I need a better way of keeping it all together... sigh... If I find it, because I thought I had another skein of it, I will pop back in here. My apologies ♥
@@shelleymcdaniel42 Nevermind! Found it! Yarn Bee Dazzling Royal Canyon =)
@@sandyshore8787 thank you! Actually, I did find it, it is the Yarn Bee Dazzling Royal Canyon ♥
I am in the process of making a baby blanket using this stitch...loving it...using a larger hook for nice drape so boxes not quite so obvious...will share a photo when I have finished...thank you from a fan in Oz
I love this pattern. I made tassels years back when I crocheted a poncho (1974 ish). I cut a piece of cardboard the length I wanted the tassels to end up and I wrapped the yarn around the cardboard, tied the top loops/ends in groups, and cut the bottom loops still on the cardboard template. Easy peasy tassels.
Beautiful pattern! I believe the yarn you are using is Hobby Lobby Rustic Romantic. Lovely color! Thank you for the wonderful video!
Thank you Sue! ☺
I counted 8 times you said the word “fun”. This pattern is so pretty. I have been looking for easy patterns to make for Christmas presents. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
Thank you so much Johna! =)
I love this! I am so glad that I found you! You are very good at explaining!
Thank you JoDee! 😊
This is such a beautiful pattern & a bonus that it's simple. Thank u so much for the upload. Truly a lovely pattern
Thank you for this lovely pattern. I have done this stitch before but your way makes it the star of the pattern. Again my thanks for sharing. Stay well and safe.
Thank you Phyllis! Too sweet 😊❤

Thank you Cynthia! I'm so glad you like it! 😊❤

Thanks so much! =)
Wow! This is so simple but so beautiful! I can’t wait to start a scarf using this pattern. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Donna! I hope you enjoy ♥
Hey Colleen. I love the look of the scarves. So cute. I think you mentioned fun just 2 times. Wasn't annoying to me. Really enjoyed it.
LOL... Thank you for saying that... I annoy myself a lot! (Why I try not to replay my vids too often) =D
Well that is an interesting and new stitch!
I counted 9 ❤️
Aloha Colleen ❤️ Thank you for sharing. I actually posted a comment earlier today but I don’t see it here. Don’t know what happened. Have a Blessed thanksgiving to you and your family. 🙏🏼❤️🌈😘
Oh no! I haven't seen it either, but I see this one! =D Thank you so much! You and your family have a blessed Thanksgiving as well! ♥
You saved my Christmas gift list! This works up so FAST and its LOVELY!!! Thank you!
I'm so happy to hear Aleta! ♥ Thank you so much =)
You always make the pretty patterns. I've used your stormy waters stitch on a lot of stuff.. Thank you so much
So kind of you Kerie! ♥ Thank you =)
Love the multi-coloured one happy & cheerful colours for winter days😊thanks for sharing
Thank you Paul! =)
Wow... I fell in love with this pattern. I was looking for scarf patterns for little boys and I think this one is perfect. I'm glad your video showed up yesterday and I came back today to start making my scarf. Thank you so much for sharing this pattern and for the tutorial, of course. Stay safe ❤️
Rhema, you are too kind! Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm so glad you like the pattern ❤
I just subscribed to your channel. Such beautiful things! I haven't crocheted for over 30 years, but you have inspired me to get back to it! Thank you!
That makes me so happy to hear! Thank you Sis! 😊
@@chaysiecrochet You're welcome! That makes me happy that it makes you happy!

Beautiful work and explanation.
Thank you for taking your time to do this for us !
Thank you Gigi! ♥ My pleasure =)
Outstanding! I’m definitely going to make a few scarves with this pattern but first am going to make a swatch in a #6 yarn to see if it’ll work for a baby blanket. I hope it does, I’m having a hard time finding a unique pattern for thicker yarns. Thanks so much for sharing!💜💜🙏🙏💜💜
So happy you like it Vicky! Thank you 😊
Watched to end of this video... you said FUN 9 times. Love this scarf pattern . Definitely will try. It looks like a nice and thick scarf. Thank you.
Thank you Lee Ann! ♥
I love the pattern, it is very simple to do and looks so good. The colorway Crayon Is so bright and pretty ,love the pooling effect! I want to make that one!
You don’t talk too much at all, and you do a nice tutorial. You show how to do the stitches nice and slowly and do such a good job explaining what to do. The camera shot closeup makes it easy to see what you are doing and what stitch you are going into. Some people don’t do that and don’t explain as well. I appreciate your videos and am looking forward to the hat video. Thank you so much and have a Happy Thanksgiving!!😊🍁
Awww.. thank you so much Kathy! So kind of you! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours ♥
9:15 she starts to crochet 😂
Thats a record for me Amanda! 😂
Lmbo!😌😀👏👏👏 thanks. But she's just giving us the info on the project
@@MA-yv8dw That is correct! lol
I love this stitch can't wait to get one started.
Thank you Sheila! 😊
I’m so sorry but I don’t understand how you go “through” the stitch. Isn’t that the same as a front post half double crochet? Are you going through the back loops of the two stitches?
Me too it’s very hard to understand
I was looking for something for a little boys scarf , this pattern is perfect . Thank you very much . Inge 😀❤️
It looks like a roving yarn and it comes out like the puzzle pattern for autism! Beautiful
I counted 11 "fun". I would like to thank you for this pattern. Im just getting back into crochet and was looking for a unique pattern. Definitely trying this. Thank you again.
Thank you Kim! 😊
I think you said fun 10 times! Thank you for this Fun pattern! I can't wait to try it 😁
Thank you Laurel! 😊
I need you to go a bit slower on the first rows and show the positioning of your needle closer to the camera. I am having trouble going threw the stitches. Thank you for your help
Tried to subscribe to yarn wars and it wont go through???? Was also trying to get Little boxes written pattern and no luck, love your site and tutorials
Thank you for sharing such a great pattern with us :) Can't wait to try it. I think you have said "fun" roughly 7 times throughout the video.
Thank you so much ♥
**update - I figured out what I was doing wrong... I'm so addicted to this pattern! I have made several scarves with a ch of 18, 20, and 22. All are beautiful! Thank you! **I love this scarf so much! Very cute pattern. But I must be doing something wrong. I'm following you on the pattern, but it's not coming out right. The lines don't match up for me. I'm a 50 yr crocheter and the light bulb won't come on! Haha I'm not giving up till I get it! Crochet ocd I guess haha. I want to make this scarf to go with the hats I'm donating to my grandsons school. Thank you! 💞
I am a new subbie. I enjoyed your video. Love the box scarves. I remember the song Little Boxes. I counted "fun" 9 times.
Thank you Melissa! 😊
Absolutely love this scarf, thank you so much for the tutorial !! I believe that I counted you saying fun 9 times :)
Thank you Amy! =)
I sure wish you have to do more lines because two lines is not enough for me to follow. I’m new in crochet.
Nice scarf i started one right during video. thanks for sharing!!
Thank you Renea! ☺
I was looking for something like this! It will be awesome with the hat too!
Thank you ! Thank you!
Fun 7 before you started the tutorial.
Thank you! =D
omg...am i glad i found you Colleen...and your patter!!!...can not wait to see more of your crochet vids!!!

I counted 8 times you said fun. Great scarves can't wait to see the patterns.
Thank you Pebbles! 😊
Wow I love the pattern in the multi coloured scarf
Beautiful and really very easy .......Thank you.
Thank you so much 😊❤
💖💖💖💖I enjoy your channel so....much!!! Thank you for sharing!!
You're too kind =) Thank you Rose!
Love th boxy pattern! I counted 8 before the tutorial began... cheers!! Ps: there are always 17 for each row, not the 18.
Thank you Maria! ♥ Yes... I misspoke, miscounted, whatever you want to call it. Ignore that part... lol. Corrected in the written ;)
Wow I been racking my brain trying to finger out what am I doing wrong here and thought I think I'm right here so thanks for speaking up for me to read and know that my count is right
I came out with 17 too...
@@deborahfanning3504 For whatever reason I was counting the chain up... my mistake... sometimes I wish I would catch these things before going live!
@@jenjenjennyful and you would be correct! My mistake =*(
First time información wach ur nice point. Very nice it is reversible
Very beautiful stitch. Got to try it out.
I’m not getting where you are putting the first stitch. It looks like you are working with the Vs on top, but I don’t seem to be able to connect from one to the other, there is yarn in the way. The description mentions a front post, but it doesn’t look like you are working into the posts either. Can someone else describe in words where you work the stitches? Not sure why I can’t see it.
Colleen Hays I found the comment section! I counted 9 times you said fun. Great tutorial.
Excellent Terry! Thank you so much ♥
Question. Are you putting your stitches into the tops of the stitches? Or are you going around the posts like a regular front/back post double crochet. At first I thought you were doing the latter, but when I enlarged it looked like you were going into the top of the stitches. It really is a beautiful pattern and I thank you for your instructions.
You answered my question a few minutes later in video. Into top. Thanks. Sorry I jumped the gun.
How many did you chain with the color pooling scarf
I really enjoyed this pattern! I made it and twisted infinity triple loop scarf.
❤️❤️❤️ will certainly put this pattern on my list!!!
I can’t wait to try it. Waiting for the hat pattern as well. I like to make sets.
Thank you Terre! Yes, I will be getting that out asap! Hoping within the week!
Another new one to add to my list! Thanks
Excellent pattern!! It's a little too wordy in the tutorial part (I don't mean the intro, I love to hear thoughts on the patterns/materials!)... just a tip, because it makes it a little difficult to find the exact part where something is explained.
This pattern is nice and perfect for a chunky scarf, thank you!!!
Always appreciate the feedback Jen! Working on myself and each new video that comes out with constructive criticism such as this! Thank you =)
Camera needs to be closer to see stitches- all we can see is your fingers. Please show a closeup!
I'm sorry Linda, will make sure to keep an eye on that for next video, I promise! =)
I counted FUN 8 times :)
I loved this video and can't wait to start making scarves for my son and nephew!!! Looking forward to the hat pattern as well...
Also the CBD oils have always been just a thought in the back of my mind, but I too have carpal tunnel in both hands and tennis elbow on the right side so crocheting for too long or very often is tough.
Thank you for your kind words Heather! I hope you enjoy the pattern! CBD has been life changing for me. After going through a funk in my life (a big funk both on the physical and mental end) and then incorporating CBD oil.. I just wish I had known about it sooner. It's one of those things you want everyone to know about after you experience it! Have an awesome day!
Colleen Hays I take it too. Have been able to get off big PHARMA. I have CFS, MS, Depression. Retired RN of 15 years. I crochet to help my FUNK too. Hugs. 😊💗☀️🧶
@@Tanacarroll makes me so happy to hear. After the effects it has had on me, just love to hear other people's successes with it ❤
Beautiful and very easy to follow. You make a great teacher. I love noise in my house. A house full of noise is a happy home. Thank you for sharing. 8 HAPPY. I clap my hands for you, because I’m happy. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🧶🧶🧶
Awww.. Thank you Michelle ❤
cthank you
Thank you!😊
I'm with everyone else =LOVE this pattern and can't wait to make it!!😁😎❤THANKS for the tutorial! (Just an fyi-I didn't even notice you saying "fun" so many times lol) but it looks it, & simple!
Darrin, thank you so much ... too kind ❤
Ok...Idk what I'm doing wrong; but I worked about 8"-9" before ripping it back to the slipknot...and reworked 2".? It's not looking right, and the edges are wonnnky lol. Frustrating beyond belief. Bc I've crocheted since 1977 or 78 [junior high school]! I think I'd rather just do each row dbl cr or hdc at this point. Wondering if my beg ch is idk--but it's been an even #...
I thought the third time would be the "charm"-but nope. I started with a ch 26...but don't see waffle-y boxes like they look in your scarves. I know when I'm licked lol.🤯😒😣
Update=I kept an open mind, started with a chain row of 18, rewatched the video to be sure I hadn't missed something...it's all good now. 😁😎🧶
Darrin, I am just seeing your comments! I am so sorry for your struggle with this pattern, If there is anything I can do to help you more... please let me know. I promise, if you are going into the right area of the stitch, this should definitely work for you. Please let me know 😔😊
I counted 11 "fun"s. I love the texture of this pattern!
Thank you Alexandra! 😊

OMG love this making a scarf in blue💙🧶❤️👍
This would make a dense, cozy afghan, you think, [always on the lookout for new ideas]
I like that idea Anna! 😊
Nice work. Thank you. Great tutorioul. I’ll guess you said fun maybe 12 times
Thank you Sandra! 😊
I love the pattern,thank you for the video,very helpful.
Thank you Lily ❤
So you’re going to the top of the stitch?
Loving this! Just one problem...I have started at least 4-5 times and have never come up with 18 stitches in the 2nd row! I've counted & counted and zoomed in to see where the stitches are supposed to go & still come up with 17! What am I doing wrong?? :(
Thanks for the clear instructions so easy
You bet! Thank you Marie =)
I complete the first row ending with a half double crochet then the next row I have 2 loops instead of one. What am I doing wrong?
Love the pattern. I think I heard you say fun 11 times.
Thank you Sherley! 😊
I would like to make a end of the bed blanket with this pattern for a preteens bed.
So, maybe a twin size?
If you are thinking a twin size, that is approx 60 x 90. I would make a starting chain of 264 using a 4 weight and a J hook. You will work it just the same from there. You may need to make an adjustment to this depending on your choice of fiber, but that should come very close =)
Hi you are doing great job for us learners
So kind Winisha ❤ Thank you 😊
Wow,I'll watch the video then start on them Scarves,Start on my Scarves.
I hope you enjoy Patricia! 😊
Look up “planned pooling” for the multi colored yarn it’s really neat it looks like u sorta did it with you’re scarf it looks like plaid
I love the pooling effect! It just works! 🙌❤
Love this! Thank you for sharing! I've made about 3 of them but I cannot get the pooling effect, could you tell me how you get it?
Thank you so much!
Maravilhoso trabalho parabéns ❤😘🌻😍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Are doing a back stitch too?
I like the oatteran boxie look.
Don't know if you ever watched the show "Weeds" but that song you were talking about was the theme song,lol. Getting ready to try this pattern for a scarf and I will want to do a matching hat :)
I have not watched it yet and Yes!! Thank you Cindy ♥
Love the background thank you very soothing.New subscriber ;)
Thank you Marie ♥ So happy to hear =)
Love this stich been trying to do it but can't figure how to get from one stich to the next without going around the post but thank for sharing I will keep working on it are you going Thur the post when you go from stich to the next
I'm not sure if I'm doing it right either but this is how I'm doing it, yarn over put my hook under the stitch like you would normally do then go around the post and put hook under the next stitch from the back, yarn over and bring up a loop yarn over and pull through all 3 stitches on the hook. I hope this helps you.
Hi Sonja! Yes, you are just going in one stitch then through to the next👍
@@suemoquin7048 Correct! 😊👍
When I go down the middle of the first stich I can't get to next stich without going out the bottom of the first stitch and going up the next
LOVELY!!! Thank you for sharing!! You are an awesome instructor! (New sub😀)
Awww... thank you Angela! 😊
@@chaysiecrochet You are so welcome, Ms Colleen!😀
I would love to use the Baby bee hushabye yarn, but I cannot find it :(
I searched my local Hobby Lobby and their website and cannot find it. This saddens me...
I'm so sorry to hear Heather! Have you tried at other online stores?
Is this really an easy scarf. I have never made one and a friend wants 3. so it has to be easy and quick
Yes! 😊
THANKS FOR sharing
Hi, a lovely pattern. I’m wondering how long it takes to make an average size scarf using this stitch? I know that experience and size are factors, just looking for a ballpark timeframe. Thanks if you’re able to respond.
I like the scarf pattern. I counted 8 the word "fun" 8 times.
Thank you Dolores! 😊
Lindo el patrón y fácil
Thank you!
So, basically you are doing a front post stitch using a hdc, then a regular hdc...so: hdc, fphdc, hdc across.
Hi Anna! No, I explain in the video that it's not quite a fphdc... similar, but not quite and I show you the difference in the video. =)
