Summary: To crochet a scarf, the single stitch will be the main stitch after the first row. Learn how to do the single stitch for a crochet scarf with tips from a craft expert in this free crochet video.
"Alright, now that you have your initial chain as wide as you want your scarf, you're going to go into the single stitch. So add a stitch before you go to the second row. You must do this every time you go to a second row or your scarf will vary in width. So dive in and pull it through and then wrap and pull the yarn through the last two. Continue this until the end. Dive in, pull it through and then pull it through twice. Dive in, pull it through, pull it through twice. Dive in pull it through, pull it through twice. Dive in, pull it through, pull it through twice. The first step is somewhat awkward because it's a floating line. But once you start building off of it, it becomes a more solid scarf. Dive in, pull it through and pull it through twice. Dive in, pull it through and pull it through twice. Dive in, pull it through and pull it through twice. Now that you're at the end of your chain, you need to add another stitch. So pull it through once more to add. And then you turn around, flip it over and continue the single stitch. Dive in, pull it through and pull it through twice. And that is how you begin your scarf."
