2. Scarf is actually 2.5 inches wide, but because of the twists the width is double that.
3. I didn’t weigh my skeins before starting, so I don’t know how much of each color. A skein of each should make two scarves.
4. To attach with a double crochet, with a slip knot on your hook, yo (yarn over) and insert hook in stitch where you are attaching, yo and pull through a loop, complete the dc as usual.
5. To attach with a single crochet, with a slip knot on your hook, insert hook in stitch where you are attaching, yo and pull through a loop, complete the sc as usual.

My group just sent 30 scarves to the Idaho Special Olympics and we live in Berkeley Springs, WV. I don't know if you have seen that project or not. If you haven't, type in Scarves for Special Olympics on facebook. You will be overwhelmed by the creativity and generosity. I have contacted the WV Special Olympics to see if we can start a scarf drive here. What do we need to do to participate in yours?

Wow! Very impressive, I love your work! I don't do much hand work anymore, but I think I could work on one of these a bit at a time. Thank you so much for posting your pattern!
Thank you for this pattern! My riding club's colours are red and gold so I am altering the colours of this pattern and making one for everyone on our competitive team for this winter. Super simple and crochets up so fast! I'm a beginner and even I can make this!
Thanks so much for the great pattern!
Thanks so much for the great pattern!
I'm doing this one as my scarf#3 for Scarves for Special Olympics/RI.
I love the patteren , though I am adjusting it to make sure it's big enough to meet the requirements. I may even make on for myself (in colors to match my coat of course!)

This is a fantastic pattern. Personally, I don't like to wear bulky scarves and this pattern is perfect. Thank you so very much.
Would this pattern work with a gradient yarn? Like mandala yarn?? Thinking of doing this with mandala unicorn colorway
