CROCHETING the SOPHIE SCARF | hacking the viral pattern!

Hello hello! Today I bring you a video I'm particularly proud of. Not being much of a knitter, but still wanting to make the viral Sophie Scarf from PetiteKnit, I figured out a way to crochet it! Here I share how I did that. It's super easy and I love the result :) I hope you find this tutorial helpful!

Things mentioned:
- The Sophie Scarf pattern from PetiteKnit
- The Spring Simplicity Shawl pattern from Small But Kinda Mighty (found on Ravelry)
- Hedgehog Fibres merino DK yarn in colorway Cereal

Key info:
- I used a 4mm crochet hook
- The main body of the scarf should be 11cm wide
- To achieve a nice double wrap I crocheted until the scarf was 40in long AND THEN began to decrease to the end
- The edging is simple single crochet
- I used one 100g skein of yarn and had a small ball left over

A crocheted Sophie Scarf! Who would have thought I needed that so much in my wardrobe. Thank you for teaching us how to do it!

Thank you, thank you! I can knit, but didn't want to knit the Sophie. I've tried several times to come up with my own crochet version, but it's always too big and chunky at the beginning. Can't wait to try this.

I was bummed when I saw that this scarf was knitted and had to look for a crocheted version. Glad I found your video. Ty for figuring this out for us.

[vanessad]

This is beautiful of you to do this and sharing it with us crocheters
Thank you.

Hi Carolyn! I am sooo thankful for this video. I was about to have a mental breakdown (literally) because I have started the Sophie scarf over and over and over again and knitting is just not for me! Hard to accept, but thats the truth. And I found your video and voilá, in 10 minutes I have reached the lenght that took me 4 hours when knitting. No crying, no stress, the "same" results. I love it! Subscribed :)
PS. to anyone who is crocheting this: at the first increase I put a stich marker on that side of my work so when I was unsure I just checked and I knew if this is the side when I have to increase or not.

Just made this scarf in forest green.. came out really nice - made it a bit longer . Thank you for a simple but gorgeous scarf!

Thank you so much for sharing your scarf, its beautiful and I love crochet, I am halfway to knitting one now, it's a chunky and looks lovely, but not finished it yet, but prefer crochet, so will definitely try your version, love your video.

[silvialanus]

I have just finished mine and it turned out great! Thanks for sharing.

[suejameson]

Thank you! I am currently knitting the scarf but am way quicker at crochet.. I put a stitch marker in the “ right “ side so I knew when to increase or decrease!
