About
When I got some WeCrochet Felici in my hands I wanted to do something simple that would show off the self striping aspect of the yarn. I love stripes, but weaving in all those ends can be such a PAIN! Self striping yarn is definitely the solution to this, but at times that can make the stripes look jagged or unintentional.
I wanted to make a scarf that would seem intentional in it’s striping. I play around with various widths and landed on a loooooonnnggggg skinny scarf that could be an accent to an outfit or you could wrap it around your neck many times to provide some warmth.
I asked you all on Instagram what this super long scarf should be called and my absolute favourite was the Stripe It Down Scarf. I loved the play on Luke Bryan’s Strip it Down song, since I am a country fan girl at heart.
If you can do a double crochet, and are looking for a simple make that’s a statement piece then this is exactly the one for you!
All the information you need to complete the scarf can be found below! When making it please be sure to share your work on Instagram and tag me (@by.stephanie.erin) as well as tag your pics with #StripeItDownScarf so that I can check out your projects and you can see everyone else’s Stripe It Down Scarf!

Notes
This scarf is worked on the bias meaning we will be increasing at one end, and decreasing at the other on every row. This is what gives the diagonal striping. This scarf is very easy to adjust, you can start by chaining additional sts if you want a wider scarf and can omit/add rows to make it shorter/longer.
The chain 2 at the start of the row counts as a dc.
Instructions
Row 1: Ch 35, dc in the 3rd ch from the hook. Dc in each ch across. (34 sts)
Row 2: Ch 2 (counts as a dc), dc in first st (inc made). Dc across until 2 sts rem, dc2tog. (34 sts)
Row 3: Ch 1, dc in 2nd st (counts as a dc2tog). Dc across until 1 st rem, 2 dc in last. (34 sts)
Repeat rows 2-3 until your scarf measures approximately 130″ in length or until you have used almost all of your 4 balls of Felici. This scarf can be adjusted to be shorter or longer if needed.
Finishing
Block according to fibre.
I like to soak my wrap in lukewarm water with a non rinse soap like Soak for 20 minutes. Then lay flat to dry on blocking mats or a towel.
Weave in all ends!
Enjoy your new Stripe It Down Scarf!
