Cloudy Day Lace Scarf – Free Crochet Pattern

*** I hope you enjoy this free crochet pattern available here on my blog! An ad-free, formatted PDF version of this crochet pattern is also available for purchase here:

Lately I’ve been on a bit of a yarn-buying freeze. I’m beginning to outgrow my current yarn storage solution, and I’m trying to use up what I have. BUT, when I stumbled across this new-ish yarn, Red Heart Roll With It: Tweed, I just couldn’t pass it up!

I jumped right for the neutral tones in this “Cloudy Day” colorway. I have had an idea for a fringed scarf in my head for a while now, and I just knew this yarn would work out perfectly.

The Cloudy Day Lace Scarf is long enough to be wrapped around your neck not just once, but twice! It is super versatile: light enough to be worn in the fall, but when wrapped twice, heavy enough to keep you warm in the winter.

Don’t forget to save this pattern in your favorites and add it to your project queue to save it for later! View this pattern on Ravelry here.

Shout out to my beautiful sister-in-law Alyssa for having some fun with me at a family picnic and modeling my scarf!

I’d love to see what you make with this tutorial! Don’t forget to share a photo of your finished work in your Ravelry projects and my Facebook group!
