Wanna make a super simple Tunisian crochet triangle scarf to keep you warm throughout the cold season? This easy and relaxing project is exactly what you need!
This Tunisian crochet scarf pattern uses the basic triangle shape of the Tunisian simple stitch triangle, which is very easy to memorize since it only requires these basic Tunisian crochet stitches:
- Tunisian Simple Stitch (Tss) – for most of the scarf;
- Tunisian Full Stitch (Tfs) – for the increases;
- and Tunisian Reverse Stitch (Trs) – for the border (and to stop the shawl from curling!)
So, this Tunisian crochet triangle scarf is the perfect pattern for an adventurous beginner or a more experienced Tunisian crocheter who is looking for a relaxing and mindless project to crochet in front of the TV, or while chatting with friends.
For my shawl, I used three beautiful skeins of fingering weight yarn that I had lying around.
If you also want to use some yarn that you already have, feel free to shop your stash and make your triangle scarf with any yarn weight and the appropriate hook.
