The Willow Scarf is part of the Willow Series which currently also includes The Willow Cowl.
The patterns in the Willow Series use a combination of the Moss Stitch and double crochets with a chain space.
With the Moss Stitch on each end of the scarf, fringe complements the look so feel free to add fringe to the scarf.

Notes:
- This crochet pattern is written in US terms.
- The scarf is worked in rows from the bottom up.
- Initial chains at the start of rows do not count as a stitch.
- The start of the double crochet and chain space row does NOT use initial 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.
- To change the length you can adjust the amount of times you do the repeat of rows 20 – 25
- To change the width of the scarf the starting chain needs to be an even number.
- Finished size is 5.5 inches wide x 68 inches long (~ 14 cm x 173 cm)
- 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.
