Crochet Scarfie bolero

Crochet Scarfie bolero

More than lightweight, summery outerwear to add to your crocheted wardrobe. This crochet bolero with a little clever twist would also cast some creative sense.

It’s short at the back and longer at the front so you can tie a knot or just wear it as it is.

Note: I used chainless starting dc for every first dc of each row/ round instead of ch 3. There’s another good crochet technique to use is ch 2, dc into the same stitch ( counted as 1st dc). In the pattern below you’ll see I simply state dc into 1st stitch for every first dc of each row/ round, so choose your best technique 🙂

Special stitch used:

2dc-V stitch: ( 2dc, ch1, 2dc ) into same stitch or space.

This crochet Scarfie bolero pattern fits size XL ( chest size: 40 to 42 inches )

Skill level: Intermediate

Gauge: 10 double crochet stitches x 5 rows approximately 2 inches ( with materials indicated )
