Crochet Aspen Scarf Free Pattern

The Aspen Scarf is a design that I originally started a couple of years ago, just for fun, because I loved this stitch pattern. I originally made it with a gray yarn that turned out to be too scratchy to wear and since I didn’t love it, it sat on the shelf…

Fast forward to the fall of 2020, I took a road trip through Utah and Colorado where I kept seeing the beautiful, bright yellow, aspen trees! I was in awe because we don’t have them here in southern California. Shortly after, I ended up looking at this scarf and saw the shape of aspen leaves in the stitch pattern. I immediately knew it was meant to be called the Aspen Scarf & I dyed up this pretty yellow yarn especially for it!

I’m happy to finally get to share the pattern online pokies with payid australia with you and hope you enjoy the stitch pattern as much as I do! I wanted to break it down really clearly for you, so in the instructions, you’ll see that I’ve included photos where I’ve worked each row in a different color along with the written instructions.
