Crochet chevron patterns tend to use extremely bright colors (and they're all really cute), but sometimes you want to incorporate your favorite pattern into a more subtle hue. This Gray Chevron Easy Crochet Scarf does just that, with its calming gray tone and gentle chevron waves. This easy crochet pattern only uses three types of stitches-chain, single, and double-so you can master the chevron crochet pattern without having to jump through crazy hoops to get there. This scarf would go with so many different outfits, so it's a great project to add to your crochet fashion.

TagsOcean Waves Scarf
Do you love Caron Cakes Yarn? Then you will absolutely love this scarf made using just one skein of your favorite yarn. Color Cake Pop was used for this scarf. I am sure it will look absolutely gorgeous in any of the colors offered by Caron Cakes. The scarf is worked lengthwise and can be crocheted in 2-3 hours. The scarf is 68 inches long and 7 1/2 inches wide. The colors and the stitch pattern reminded me of the calming ocean waves. Add another relaxing project to your kitty and stay warm and toasty.
Power of a Prayer Shawl
Prayer Shawl We all have friends in need. Sometimes the friend just needs a hug or an encouraging chat over a cup of coffee. Most of us benefit from a reprieve from the daily grind and having a friend to laugh with can go a long way. But sometimes a friend needs more - when that friend is walking through a dark, sad, or scary time; what many of us call “the valley.” Obviously, the person experiencing a trial is the one with the difficulty - but sometimes knowing how to be a good friend can be hard too. We don't always know what to say. We don't want to be trite, or too serious. We want to be there, but not over-bearing. Some of us also have a tendency to shirk away from very emotional situations. A tangible gift has a powerful impact and offering something personal can help with healing. I love giving a prayer shawl that represents everything I wish, hope, and pray for that individual in the midst of trouble. And not merely a shawl you would find in a store or in a pattern book, but a personalized crocheted fabric that wraps a friend in symbolism. The symbols you choose will depend on your beliefs and the beliefs of the person receiving the shawl. The purpose isn’t religious proselytizing; it's blessing someone going through a hard time.
Big Sky Shawl
Life is often hard, and even the clearest skies have clouds sometimes. And as crocheters, we can make it better. One way is by making prayer or comfort shawls for those who need an extra hug, and to feel our love. The Big Sky Shawl was designed with this idea in mind - while maintaining a sense of style. The Big Sky Shawl is made with Lion Brand Homespun, a favorite yarn for those crafting for others. It's warm, soft, and the yarn creates the texture - which means simple stitches shine. And the Big Sky Shawl does indeed use simple stitches, so almost anyone can make this easy crochet prayer shawl pattern! The colors I used for the Big Sky Shawl are Montana Sky and Clouds - appropriate, no? Streaks of gray cut through the blue sky, but there is more blue than gray, to remind us of the bright times to come. The shaping creates a triangular shawl that's more V shaped than anything, with corners that wrap easily around the shoulders to stay in place. And it doesn't just help the person you give it to - it helps you too! Studies have shown time and again how crocheting improves our mental health, making this an excellent way to help others while you help yourself. You can wear the Big Sky shawl across the shoulders as a standard shawl, or wrapped around the neck with the point in front - either way, the optional tassels on the points help keep it where you put it. It's only 20 rows long (plus a couple rounds for the border), so you can whip one up in a just a few evenings.

This gorgeous Waves of Enchantment Scarf is made with the stunning Lion Brand Mandala yarn in the Wizard colorway. This color changing yarn has a beautiful self-striping pattern which makes the color changes super easy! The wave stitch pattern of the scarf makes it visually interesting and accentuates the bold colors of the yarn. If you are making this project with a different yarn and would still like to create the color blocks, you will need to use several different colors of yarn and change colors in different sections to create the same effect.
