Ombrè V-stitch Scarf

Ombré V-stitch Scarf
Picture
I used a 5mm hook with 5 shades of blue from light to dark in Red Heart Super Saver 10ply worsted: Light Periwinkle, Blue, Blue Suede, Royal and Soft Navy.  The finished scarf is 10cm wide, 175cm long without fringing and weighs 115 grams.

You can use acrylic, wool or cotton as desired. Any colours can be used and any ply with matching hook. A smaller ply may need more starting chains to get the length required and more rows may need to be added.

A wider scarf can be made by simply adding an extra colour or two or by working two rows in each colour. 
Note:
In this variation on v-stitch, there is a chain between the dcs and two skipped stitches in the first v-stitch row. This creates a wider, lacier look. If you wish to create a less open look, omit the ch 1 between dcs and only skip 1 stitch between.
​
This free crochet pattern can be downloaded. It is the basic pattern only in USA terms.
