Spiral Beehive Scarf

Width 4 inches – easy to make bigger
This version designed by Clare Sullivan
Original spiral hat design by © 24CaratCrochet 2014 on YouTube as “24 Carat Crochet”
US crochet terminology
​Video tutorial – http://youtu.be/XU4NG4vl4ME 
​Intermediate
Materials

4.5 mm / G hook 
Red Heart Shimmer DK/8 ply yarn in two different colors totaling approx. 400g
Scissors, Yarn needle, 2 stitch markers. 
  • This pattern uses fpdc / front post double crochet
  • Color A will be the ribbed section
  • Color A is the dc / double crochet round
  • Color B is the fpdc / front post double crochet
  • Fpdc dec – front post double crochet decrease​
Decide which will be “color A” and which will be “color B”. They both will play equal prominence in the pattern. Where the instructions say “remove hook” – either attach a stitch marker into the loop or enlarge the loop enough so the stitch doesn’t undo itself when working on the other color.

​
Using color A: chain 4 then slipstitch into the first chain making a circle.

Round 1 – Still with color A - sc into the ring, hdc into the ring, 4dc into the ring. Remove hook. Using color B – sc into the ring next to where you finished with color A, hdc into the ring, 4dc into the ring. Remove hook.

Round 2 – Place hook into loop of color A, 2dc into each stitch of color B of the previous round. Remove hook. Place the hook into loop of color B, 2fpdc into each stitch of color A of the previous round. Remove hook.

Round 3 – Place hook into loop of color A, *dc, 2dc into the next stitch, repeat from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook. Place hook into loop of color B, *fpdc, 2fpdc into the next stitch, repeat from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook.
Non-increase section 

​Place hook into loop of color A, dc in every stitch for half the round (42 stitches). Remove hook. Place hook into loop of color B, fpdc in every stitch for the remainder of the round. Repeat round 8 for the length of your scarf 
Decrease section

Place hook into loop of color A, *dc, dec into the next stitch, repeat from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook. Place hook into loop of color B, *fpdc, fpdc dec, repeat from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook. Place hook into loop of color A, dec into each stitch of color B of the previous round. Remove hook. Place the hook into loop of color B​
The decreases just for the front post stitches of this round only

The decreases from the previous round will count as 1 stitch – the first part of the decrease is worked around the first fpdc (see pic 1) and the second part of the decease is worked around the decrease from the previous round – this will look like 2 stitches but it is actually 1 (see pic 2)

Great looking pics in two clicks, thanks to PicMonkey's photo editing tools
fpdc dec into each stitch of color A of the previous round. Remove hook. 

Still with color A – 1 dc into the next 4 stitches, hdc into the next stitch, sc into the next stitch. Remove hook. Using color B – work the next lot of front post stitches the same way you did the previous ones – using the 2 stitches on the previous round as 1 stitch

1 fpdc into the next 4 stitches, fphdc into the next stitch, fpsc into the next stitch.. Remove hook.​

  • Finish off leaving a 6 inch tail. Weave colour A into color A through the top of the stitches and color B into colour B through the top of the stitches to close up hole (see image below) 
  • Sew in ends

Thank you for choosing my pattern
Happy crochet
