STITCH EXPLANATIONS:
Cl (3 double crochet cluster) Yarn over, insert hook in indicated st and draw up a loop, yarn over and draw through 2 loops on hook (2 loops rem on hook), *yarn over, insert hook in same st and draw up a loop, yarn over and draw through 2 loops on hook; rep from * once more, yarn over and draw through all 4 loops on hook.
dc3tog (dc 3 sts together) (Yarn over, insert hook in next st and draw up a loop, yarn over, draw through 2 loops) 3 times, yarn over and draw through all 4 loops on hook - 2 sts decreased.
NOTES:
Scarf is made from 8 Granny Squares and 3 Striped Sections, as shown in Layout Diagram.
Granny Squares are worked in joined rnds. Striped Sections are worked back and forth in rows.
Granny Squares are sewn together in pairs, then Striped Sections are worked between the pairs to make the Scarf.
To change yarn color, work last st of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through all loops on hook to complete st. Proceed with new color. Fasten off old color.
