Designed for the Warm Up America 2025 Hat, Scarf, and Mittens Drive!
I'm so excited to share the Olivewood Set with all of you! I designed this hat, mittens, and scarf set using Knit Picks/WeCrochet Brava Stripe, which is perfect for charity stitching - and personal stitching! It's soft, lovely to touch, and 100% acrylic - important for charity donations! To learn more about this charity drive, CLICK HERE!
Easy to Customize
The Olivewood Scarf is long, warm, and endlessly wearable. While I've written it to fit the parameters of Warm Up America, you can crochet your own to be as long - or short - as you like! The stitches have enough texture to stay interesting while still being beginner-friendly — perfect for gift-making season or when you need a cozy wrap in a hurry.

Could you please tell me what the beginning chain would be if I am not using the DC foundation chain?
Tamara Kelly says
Hi Donna! Ch 24, skip the 3 chs closest to the hook (counts as first dc), dc in each rem ch across. 🙂
