The B.Hooked.Nook Scarf Hybrid Pattern

Hi Makers!

I’m Vincent, the crochet and knitwear designer behind Visuvio’s Crafts, a shop born from my longing for stunningly timeless knits that’ll keep you warm in the coldest of horse pastures. You can follow along with my crafty journey on Instagram @visuvios_crafts, where I aim to encourage, inspire and connect with all kinds of makers. I’ve always enjoyed writing down my own patterns, even if it was originally due to having a big head and lots of hair. Hahaha. Now, after receiving a handful of eager requests, I’ve started selling patterns within the last two years and I am excited for all the new pattern ideas that are to come.

The B.Hooked.Nook Scarf - a unisex hybrid scarf, which includes both knitting and crochet, that is perfect for those autumn mornings/evenings. This scarf’s name and design are inspired by the two keynote speeches presented by Jessica of The Hook Nook and Brittany of B. Hooked Crochet at the 2018 Our Maker Life Meetup Event. Brittany gave six points to take our maker journey to new heights. So I’ve included six purl ridges to highlight the knit lacework. Jessica candidly spoke about fear and shared very personal stories of her life experiences. I worried that no one would enjoy a pattern that features both knitting and crochet all in one, but that is the very fear Jessica spoke of. So, I’ve leaped and loved the beauty of this creation; a truly half knit and half crochet scarf.

Let’s get started!

TRANSITION + KNIT PANEL:

Remove the crochet hook from the live loop and insert one knitting needle. This loop counts as the first stitch of knitting row 1.

Pick up a stitch through the back loop only as if to purl up to the last stitch, pick up a stitch under both loops of the last stitch.

Row 2: (RS) P1, K1, *yo, skpo* repeat from * to last stitch of row, P1

**Be sure to crochet under both loops at the top of the fabric created by the knit bind off. This creates a smooth and secure join between the two panels.

Row 3: (RS) 1 SC in each stitch across entire row. (219 sts)
