I really love these colors and know my granddaughter will,too. Looking at yarn swatches most seems alike, as in, is it red or orange,or blue? As you can tell, doesn't take much to confuse me!lol. And as to length, if I want my scarf to be roughly 72-84 inches, would 199 or 232 be best starting chain.<br />Thank you and an early Happy Thanksgiving!,dianeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04015503607659603232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7241896252474858543.post-53218735079508265842017-04-01T11:39:48.837-07:002017-04-01T11:39:48.837-07:00Since this is a featured item by a crocheter other...Since this is a featured item by a crocheter other than myself, I'm not sure how many stitches she started with.Illuminate Crochethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08750043590498446248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7241896252474858543.post-73073556436225410412017-02-26T13:35:33.801-08:002017-02-26T13:35:33.801-08:00HI I love what you did with this pattern!

It doesn't work however because there are only 2 SC at the beginning and end of the pattern row, but 3 SC are used in the middle repeats. My first attempt was with 298 and it did not work out. I think I have it figured out now. The pattern repeat in the middle of the row is 16 stitches. So I took 33 plus multiples of 16 and then added one at the end and it worked!

Since the original pattern has you chain 33 stitches plus 1 for the turning chain (34 total), I would chain a multiple of 33 stitches plus one more for the side to side look. Some examples would be 67, 100, 133, 166, 199, 232, 265, or 298.<br /><br />I do know a trick for starting chains that are too long. If you make sure to leave a longish tail at the beginning of your chain you can simply untie the slip knot and gently pull out the extra chain stitches if you have too many. Then weave that end in very securely. You did exactly what I would have done :)<br />Illuminate Crochethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08750043590498446248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7241896252474858543.post-46921894891666585722014-09-02T15:21:35.238-07:002014-09-02T15:21:35.238-07:00I absolutely LOVE this scarf!
