Crochet scarves are a great way to knock out a quick project that lets you practice new crochet stitches that you have been wanting to try out.
The Bean Stitch is such a fun stitch to work into patterns. It ads a beautiful raised textured stitch that makes a great accent. Using this stitch with the Lion Brand Ferris Wheel yarn made a great combo.
The Yarn
For this scarf, I used Lion Brand Ferris Wheel yarn, which is labeled as a medium #4 weight yarn, but it is on the lighter side of that. So if you use a regular #4 medium weight yarn it might turn out a bit wider and longer than what is listed in this pattern.
Since Ferris Wheel yarn is on the lighter side of the #4 weight yarns, a Lightweight #3 yarn could also be an option, but I did not get to test that out so the sizing could be smaller if you go with that type of yarn.

Notes:
- This crochet pattern is written in US terms.
- This scarf is worked from the bottom up.
- To change the width you can adjust the size of the foundation chain, it needs to be an even number.
- To change the length you can adjust the number of times the repeat rows are completed (Rows 8 – 17)
- Initial chains at the start of each hdc row do not count as a stitch
- The start of the bean stitch rows do NOT use initial turning chains, instead, these rows are started with a single crochet in the 1st stitch of the row and then doing another single crochet into the top of that single crochet.
- Bean stitches count as 2 stitches and are closed off with a ch 1 (except for the last bean stitch in the row)
- Finished size is 78 inches long and 6.25 inches wide. (~198 cm long x 16 cm wide)
- Fringe can be added to the ends of the scarf, or it can be left as is. Be sure to allow for extra yarn if you do want to add fringe as the materials are listed with yardage without fringe.
