CROCHETING the SOPHIE SCARF | hacking the viral pattern!

[@ckcox]

Thank you, thank you! I can knit, but didn't want to knit the Sophie. I've tried several times to come up with my own crochet version, but it's always too big and chunky at the beginning. Can't wait to try this.

A crocheted Sophie Scarf! Who would have thought I needed that so much in my wardrobe. Thank you for teaching us how to do it!

[@carolynspalding]

Hi, Erica! Thanks so much for watching! Glad I could help :)

[@esheed5874]

@@carolynspalding I finished my crochet sophie scarf, it's so cute! I made it out of Caron Simply Soft. Just have to steam it! Now, I need to make a sophie shawl, do you think this pattern would work for that too? Thanks again!

[@vanessad410]

This is beautiful of you to do this and sharing it with us crocheters Thank you.

[@tracyh9134]

Just made this scarf in forest green.. came out really nice - made it a bit longer . Thank you for a simple but gorgeous scarf!

[@carolynspalding]

So glad it came out well! Thank you for being here! :)

Hi Carolyn! I am sooo thankful for this video. I was about to have a mental breakdown (literally) because I have started the Sophie scarf over and over and over again and knitting is just not for me! Hard to accept, but thats the truth. And I found your video and voilá, in 10 minutes I have reached the lenght that took me 4 hours when knitting. No crying, no stress, the "same" results. I love it! Subscribed :) PS. to anyone who is crocheting this: at the first increase I put a stich marker on that side of my work so when I was unsure I just checked and I knew if this is the side when I have to increase or not.

[@aiymaimangaliyeva7748]

This is SOOO MEEE!!! Why is knitting so hard 😭😭😭

[@carolynspalding]

OMG I'm so glad this video helped you!! Thank you so much :)

[@rrockafellar]

The stacked single crochets make for such a nice smooth edge - I love this pattern!

Guten Abend! Ich stricke gerade einen Sophie Scarf..... Diese Idee zu häkeln finde ich sehr ansprechend und ich werde mir zusätzlich noch einen nach dieser Anleitung häkeln. Tolle Anleitung. Danke ❤ für die Mühe, die Sie sich gemacht haben und dass Sie es teilen. Mit einem freundlichen Gruß aus Montabaur Heike

I’m knitting the Sophie scarf. Now I will be able to crochet it! Your pattern is really fabulous. I’m very happy to find your channel, and I’ve subscribed.

[@carolynspalding]

Thank you so much, Rita! Glad to have you here!

[@Noahidebc]

Hello thank you so much ! I made one with some discontinued fingering weight yarn I had. Though I did the edging in the icord. I’m about to do my second. Have a great day!

[@janelange2368]

Fabulous tutorial. I knit, but would rather crochet, so thank you. Now, how about a tutorial on crocheting the Half + Half Triangle Shawl? 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@carolynspalding]

Oooh I will have to look into that one! Thanks for the suggestion! :)

[@deborahspins2909]

This is just so cool and absolutely what I was hoping one day to find. Would you consider writing this into a pattern? When I look at the patterns that you suggested below they’re just not as cool as this one. Thank you so much for showing us

[@hannahhuggins7058]

Quick question 😊 when you’re adding length do you still do the stacked single crochet? Or just turn your work and continue to do double crochet?

[@chitterzz]

I came to ask the same thing. I see you didn’t get a reply. What did you end up doing?

[@carolynspalding]

Hi! Sorry for the delayed response and lack of clarity! Yes, continue doing the stacked single crochet on the end of each row and double crocheting (with increasing) while you're adding length :) Hope this helps!

[@milk88888]

So just to be clear, when you stop increasing the width and continue the 40 inch part, the first stitch is still stacked?

[@mariadefatimapeixoto7909]

Thank you! ❤

[@judylou2099]

It lovely

[@debrarodriguezestrada2748]

Great idea!

[@SjH-qw5cm]

Excellent scarf. Thank you for posting.

[@TeriDean]

This is so lovely, thank you! It reminds me of the aviator scarf my grandma used to wear, so I am making it for my mom. Once I reached the desired width, I switched to cross double crochets and it’s turning out amazing with such a beautiful drape. One quick question before I start the decreases, do we still begin with the stacked single crochet at the beginning of the rows? I hope that’s not a foolish question; it’s my first time using that stitch. Thank you so much!

[@TeriDean]

I did continue with the stacked single crochets on the decrease and it turned out great. I’ve actually made 3 of these now with malabrigo yarn and they made beautiful gifts. Thank you so much!

[@chitterzz]

What about the part between the increasing and the decreasing? Just dbl crochet? Thanks!

[@TeriDean]

@@chitterzz Yes, the pattern here does call for double crochet. I went ahead and did cross doubles since the stitch count was correct for that and it turned out awesome! I’ve actually made 4 of these now. They work up quickly for gifts to those in warmer winter climates.

[@loismiller7742]

Ladies, after you make Carolyn's, look at CJ Brady's crochet pattern " Just Bloom"

[@janicemacdougall1844]

Thank you so much for sharing your time and talents! 😊 I’m going to crochet this for my Mom! ❤. I have a question: is the left leg mean back loop? I am left-handed so it would still be back loop? Thank you for your help. 😊

[@vivaroiz]

merci!!

[@FancyRavenmoon]

Ohh do try to find time to make one with sc , that would be so fancy!!!!

[@Bluessongstress1963]

So what I'm now wondering is, could this 'Sophie' be adapted to #tunisian crochet? Maybe @tlyarncrafts! 😁

[@Noahidebc]

It would definitely make it more dense.

[@FancyRavenmoon]

Would I be able to follow with doing the sc. instead of double? Or do Halfdc?

[@louiseborgquist4564]

I have a question how do I do the decrease I sincerely do not understand😅

[@nhihoang1471]

How do you do the second half? The decrease?

[@dlk6g]

I knitted the scarf, but would love a crocheted written pattern. Any plans? Thanks for this, I have yarn left and will definitely try this!

[@carolynspalding]

No plans for a pattern currently, but never say never :) Thank you for watching!

[@kamibrown82]

About how many rows to do at the 11cm point?

[@Arianna1308]

Will you please tell the total lenght? Looks very nice

[@brixitlorenzo6643]

hi, i have a doubt, when you reach the 11 cm, the remaining rows need also the "stacked" single crochet? , stacked in the begginig and then just dc all the time? I dont know why it gets increasing wide when i tried :(

[@kristinunger1320]

I have the same question! Did you figure it out ?

[@yammiescommon5704]

I want to know the answer too…

[@Noahidebc]

I think I know why it’s increasing. After you do a stack crochet you double crochet till the end of the row; now this is where you have to pay close attention; you will see what you think are ‘two’ stitches at the end of the row. But really it is ‘one’ stitch because it’s a ‘stack’ when looking at it from the top you see two ‘v’s’ the second from the end is actually the top of the ‘stack’, so do a double crochet in the second ‘v’ from the end. So basically, don’t look at the top ‘v’ as the stitch, look at the length of the stitch. I hope this makes sense and it helps.

[@kamibrown82]

[@louiseborgquist4564]

About 24-25 for me❤
