Three Bobble Center Scarf

Pattern Instructions:
With H hook and navy, ch 17
R1: dc in 4th chain from hook and in each chain across (15 dc)

R2: ch 3, turn, dc in next 2 stitches, *bobble in next st, dc in next 3 stitches, rep from * across (3 bobbles) (12 dc)

R3: ch 3, turn, dc in each st across. (15 dc)

Repeat Rows 2 and 3 to desired size.

Edging:
Rnd 1: You can use either red or blue for this round. On right side (the bobble side) sc around, working 3 sc in corners.

Rnd 2 Bobble Round: ch 3, turn so you are on the wrong or back side—the side opposite of the one where you see the bobbles. Remember that the bobbles will puff to the opposite side and will then be on the right side when you’re done.

Being careful to place your bobbles in line with the previously made bobbles, work  in above pattern —1 alternating bobble with 3 dc over 4 stitches. Along the sides, line your bobbles up with the stitches on the row opposite, you will be continuing this pattern except you will work 3 dc  in the corner and will have dc on either side of the corner stitches in order to get you to the right spot, join to beginning ch-3.

Rnd 3: ch 1, turn, on right side, with blue, sc around, working 3 sc in corners.

Four Bobble Scarf



Pattern Instructions:

R2: ch 3, turn, dc in next 2 stitches, * bobble in next st, dc in each of next 3 stitches, rep from * across (4 bobbles) (15 dc)

R3: ch 3, turn, dc across (19 dc)

Repeat rows 2 and 3 with each color until you have 5 bobble rows and 5 dc rows in that color . (The Row 1 dc row does not count. ) The new color begins with a bobble row in the sample. You begin and end with navy.

Work 6 blue sections and 5 red sections

If you do not need a particular size, you can add the edging from the Three Bobble Center Scarf. This will give you a wider scarf. You can use either color for your bobble edging row.
