​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. Total of 12 stitches.

Round 2 – Place hook into loop of color A, 2fpdc 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. Total of 24 stitches.

Round 3 – Place hook into loop of color A, *fpdc, 2fpdc 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. Total of 36 stitches. 

If at any stage you have the scarf the width you need, skip to non-increase section

Round 4 – Place hook into loop of color A, *fpdc into the first 2 stitches, 2fpdc into the next stitch, repeat from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook. Place hook into loop of color B, *fpdc into the first 2 stitches, 2fpdc into the next stitch, repeat instructions from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook. Total of 48 stitches.

Round 5 – Place hook into loop of color A, *fpdc into the first 3 stitches, 2fpdc into the next stitch, repeat from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook. Place hook into loop of color B, *fpdc into the first 3 stitches, 2fpdc into the next stitch, repeat instructions from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook. Total of 60 stitches. 

Non-increase section 

Round 8 – Place hook into loop of color A, fpdc 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. Total of 84 stitches

​Repeat round 8. Until you have the scarf the length you desire 

Decrease section – if you did a different amount of increases rounds – for example - fpdc, 2fpdc into the next stitch – you will need to start here for your decreasing – instead of working the increase stitch you will work a DECREASE
​

• Place hook into loop of color A, *fpdc into the first 3 stitches, fpdc2tog around the next 2 stitch, repeat from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook. Place hook into loop of color B, *fpdc into the first 3 stitches, fpdc2tog into the next stitch, repeat instructions from the asterisk 6 times. Remove hook. 

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)
