The “Victoria” Button Crochet Scarf Pattern

I designed this scarf for myself a couple days ago and am so excited to share this crochet pattern with you all! It is very simple to make and has a awesome texture. I hope you love it!

NOTES:

SKILL LEVEL:

Advanced Beginner

FINISHED SIZE:

 One size approx. 60" circumference &  5" width

MATERIALS:

Size M crochet hook 9.00 mm ( or whatever hook is needed to obtain gauge) I used a Susan Bates Bamboo Hook which I love! Find it here on Amazon ➸ Bamboo Hook 9.00MM

Yarn needle

125 yards of Loops & Threads Charisma in Off White or any other Bulky 5 yarn

Two 2" buttons (optional)

CROCHET ABBREVIATIONS:

ch = chain

dc = double crochet

sc = single crochet

VICTORIA SCARF PATTERN:

(gauge approx.  1 row = 5")

Row 1:  ch 12, in 2nd ch from hook sc, sc in every ch across. (11)

Row 2: ch 3, in 6th ch from hook * {dc,dc,ch 1,dc,dc} all in the same ch, skip 4 ch's, in next ch repeat * group, sk 2 ch's, 1 dc in turning ch. (11)

Row 3: ch 3, {dc,dc,ch 1,dc,dc} in ch 1 space from previous row, {dc,dc, ch 1,dc,dc} in next ch 1 space, 1 dc in turning ch. (11)

Row 4 to 44: repeat row 3 (11)

Row 45:  ch 1, * sc in first dc from previous row, sc in next dc from previous row, sc in ch 1 space, sc in next dc , sc in next dc, repeat from * on next group, end with 1 dc in turning ch. (11)

Fasten off and weave in loose ends with yarn needle, or leave a 12" piece to attach buttons, see below (optional)

ATTACHING BUTTONS

(optional)

(you can use the 12" piece of extra yarn or sewing thread to attach)

(button holes are not needed because of the open stitches of the scarf)

I placed my scarf flat like an upside down U and placed the buttons on the inner left hand side about 2 inches apart. If you want to wear it like the picture you would put it on your neck with the 2 long ends down your back, wrap the left scarf tail around your neck to the right, and the right scarf tail to your left and secure with the buttons.

There isn't any wrong spot to put them and they can be secured any way you wish. I would also suggest if you aren't sure on where to place the buttons put the scarf on how you would prefer to wear it and then figure out the best spot for the buttons to be placed.

I hope you enjoyed this pattern. If you have any questions feel free to ask! You can find an ad free version of this pattern over in my Store here ➸ Ad Free Victoria Scarf Pattern or find it on Ravelry here ➸ Victoria Scarf on Ravelry.

Happy Crocheting!!

Free Square Button Pillow Crochet Pattern

Make this decorative crochet pillow today with RPD's newest free pattern!

Level:

Intermediate

Materials:

Crochet hook size J 6.00 mm

Scrap Worsted weight yarn (4) and about 80 yards of white.

(I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Oatmeal, Silver Grey, White, Charcoal Grey, White and Mustard)

Yarn needle

4 one inch buttons (optional)

15 x 15″  pillow form - Buy on Amazon--> “15 x 15″ Pillow Form”

Notes:

You may sell items made from this pattern. If you choose to sell items made from any of my patterns please link back to me at www.RESCUEDPAW.com for credit. Do not use my photos to sell any items. Thank you for respecting my work.

Patterns:

Front of Pillow:

To make the front of the pillow you will need to use my square pattern which can be found here ---> “Simple Square Pattern”. You will need 9. 

You may block your squares after you are done if you wish. One Dog Woof has a great tutorial on how to build your own blocking station which can be found here --> “DIY blocking station”.

After you are done blocking you can start joining together your squares. I used my yarn needle and did an invisible seam. Here is a tutorial from Oombawka Design  --> “Invisible Seam Tutorial”

Now that the squares are sewn together you now need to attach the buttons (optional) 1 at every corner of your center square. 

Finished size should be approx. 15″ x 15″

Back of Pillow:

( gauge is approx. 10 hdc’s for every 4″)

Row 1: With white ch 35, in 2nd chain from hook half double crochet, half double crochet in every ch across, turn. (34)

Row 2: Chain 1, starting in second chain from hook half double crochet, half double crochet in every chain across, turn. (34)

Row 3- 25: Repeat row 2 (34)

Weave in loose ends with yarn needle.

Finishing:

Using white yarn single crochet along edges of front and back of pillow while evenly holding them together. Making sure they are both facing the correct direction. 

In every corner, single crochet, chain 1, single crochet.

You will do 35 single crochets across every edge. 37 including corners.

Make sure to only do 3 sides and then insert your pillow form. Continue single crocheting across last side to finish your pillow. fasten off yarn and weave in loose ends. 

I hope you enjoyed this pattern! If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Happy Crocheting!

Market Tote Bag Crochet Pattern

Crochet tote bags are always fun to make and our family always seems to get a ton of use from them. I actually finished this crochet bag earlier this month for my daughter to tote her books back and forth to the beach. I was thrilled the sand fell out the bottom of the bag because of the spaces in the design which meant less mess in my truck and house! You could easily line this tote to make it more useful for smaller items you would wish to carry. I hope you enjoy this pattern.

Materials:

Lily Sugar n Cream Cotton Yarn or any cotton yarn (2 balls of Ecru & 1 ball of Jute)

Size J crochet hook 6.00 MM 

Yarn needle

Crochet Terms:

Ch = chain

Sc =  single crochet

Dc = double crochet

Sl St = slip stitch

sk = skip

st= stitch

Notes:

Finished size is approximately 12 wide X 15" length (without handles)  but will stretch since its cotton. 

If you wish to reduce the stretching of this bag I recommend lining it. There are some great tutorials on how to line crochet bags from Pattern Paradise and Craftsy on the internet.

You MAY sell items made from this pattern. If you choose to sell items made from any of my patterns please link back to me at www.RESCUEDPAW.com for credit. Do not use my photos to sell any items. Thank you for respecting my work.

Dreaming of Winter Crochet Beanie Pattern

As a crocheter I am already dreaming of winter and all the designs I can create with my every growing yarn stash. Hence the name for Rescued Paw Designs newest pattern was born the “Dreaming of Winter Beanie”. This pattern is worked up with “Red Heart Soft” yarn which is true to its name and is very “soft”. I have used it in the past to make my “Simple Striped Blanket” which my son still sleeps with every night!  This particular design has a lot of texture versus a simple hdc or dc beanie pattern. I hope you all enjoy! 

Materials:

Red heart soft yarn in off white - approximately 125 yards --> {find it here on Amazon}

crochet hook size J

Simple Chained Crochet Beanie Pattern

If you are like me and love simple projects then this chained crochet hat fits that description perfectly! This pattern is great for beginners who would like to try something a bit more advanced but still easy enough to finish without a crochet pattern headache. 

I used Patons Denim-y yarn in Lemon Curry that I picked up from Joann Fabrics earlier this year which is a cotton, wool, acrylic mix. It has an interesting soft but dense texture to it and definitely will keep a person warm in the cooler months ahead! My kids instantly loved it because they said it reminded them of popcorn. I see a new project in my future.. maybe a popcorn applique? How fun! 

Materials:

Crochet hook size J 9.00 mm 

Patons Denim-y Yarn in Lemon Curry 144 yards or any worsted weight yarn

(available on Amazon here --> Patons Denim-y Yarn)

yarn needle

Crochet Abbreviations:

sc = single crochet

dc = double crochet

hdc = half double crochet

ch = chain

sl st = slip stitch

Notes:

Finished Size - Teen/ Adult - 22″ Circumference & 9″ Length

After round 5 you should have a 6″ circle

Getting ready for Winter!

I know its only July and summer is in full swing but I am already starting to stock my ETSY shop with winter items! I have been spending my summer days crocheting away while the kiddos are swimming, playing or at night while I’m watching Gossip Girl (shhh don't tell anyone) just to be prepared for this upcoming winter season. I was a little behind last year with my stock so I am excited to have a little bit of a head start on the rush! 

Right now in the Shop I am featuring two of my favorite colors tweed and avocado. I love both of these colors so much I cant decide which one I like better! Which do you prefer?

Avocado  

or

Tweed?

I will be adding more and more accessories as the summer goes along so keep checking back here or the SHOP to see if your favorite color shows up!
