    Notes to me:
    110 starting chain
    Use size 6 - Super Bulky yarn

    I LOVE how you break it down. Finding the bunny ears. Grabbing your buddy and pulling him through. I’m 36 and that helped me tremendously, simple as it is. I’m visual learner, so you gave me something to compare and look for and you explained how and why the stitches look the way they do. Just a well done tutorial. Your kids are lucky to have a teacher like you!

    I learned to crochet from my mom as a young girl. I hadn’t done it in years but I discovered crocheted dishcloths and decided to try to crochet my own. I now have more dishcloths than I can use, as do my friends. I have moved on to scarves. I learned a lot from this video. Her method of holding the yarn is now my favorite. Looping the yarn around on your hook to keep it straight eliminated my previous failures at trying to crochet the scarf as a continuous loop. How she finishes the scarf is the best method I have seen yet. Great video!

    I've always just slid the working chain onto the back of my hook instead of taking my chain off the hook to slid it on. Its easier for me so i didn't pull any of my stitches out sliding the chain on. Then to connect them, I pull a stitch from the front right thru the back stitch so u don't have to pull the chain off the back of the needle.

      Your stitches will just be a bit tighter. It should still look the same, but the scarf would end up a little smaller than the pattern. You can add some extra stitches to the beginning chain to fix that! Good luck!

    It’s a good tutorial but I wish you had mentioned the circumference because I only had 4 ply stretchy yarn (that was probably thinner also) available so it was pretty hard to maintain the tension and I don’t think my 110 loops were the same size as yours...
    Also the part where you join the ends of the chain was so really hard to follow because you kept turning the chain and replacing your fingers awfully many times.
