04.12.20 Update: Back in 2014, this was one of my first designs!
I made this scarf to match the Short Slouchy Hat with Visor you see in one of my original photos that I made from a Bernat pattern that I no longer see on the site.
I had picked up another skein of Bernat Softee Chunky in the same beautiful creamy colorway, and planned to make a one skein scarf, and I named it the “Softee Chunky Short Ribbed Scarf”.
My nails are Color Street Oops a Paisley.
In this update, I renamed the pattern, worked the scarf to a normal, average length, and added 3 more sizes to now include 4 sizes!
Brett Haylee is an easy crochet line that features simple half double crochet stitches worked in the back loop only to create a beautiful texture and ribbed fabric. This is a beginner friendly series, and this scarf is great project to pair with watching your favorite TV show or movie. You don’t even need to count rows if you don’t want to, just use a soft tape measure to measure as you go, and stop at the length desired.

What Supplies Do I Need to Crochet a Super Chunky Ribbed Scarf?
- 65 (125, 195, 250) Yards of Super Chunky Weight Yarn – I used Lion Brand’s Wool Ease Thick n Quick in the Fossil colorway for the Adult Small size
- M13/9mm Crochet Hook
- Tapestry Needle
How Long Does it Take to Crochet a Super Chunky Ribbed Scarf?
I worked up the adult small size in just over 1 hours, 45 minutes.
Measurements:
- Toddler: 4″ by 30 1/8″
- Child: 5 1/4″ by 45 1/2″
- Adult Small: 6 1/2″ by 60″
- Adult Large: 7″ by 70″
Gauge (Not Essential):
In Pattern: 9 HDC by 7 Rows = 4″ Wide by 4 1/4″ Tall
The easiest way to take gauge is to work in pattern, and measure your work after at least Row 3 to see if it matches the given width measurement, then continue working in pattern, and periodically check the length to see if it matches the given length measurement. Easy peasy!
Abbreviations (US Terms):
- BLO – Back Loop Only
- HDC – Half Double Crochet (Photo Tutorial)
Pattern Notes:
Beginning chain 1 does not count as a stitch.
The reason we are working the first and last stitches into both loops is to create a cleaner, straighter edge.
Try to keep a looser tension with the first and last stitch, otherwise the sides will scrunch up a bit because these stitches are worked lower than that in the back loop. If needed, work the first and last stitch as an Extended Half Double Crochet (EHDC) to give yourself extra height. To EHDC: Yarn over, insert your hook into the stitch as normal, yarn over and pull through (3 loops on the hook), yarn over and pull through 1 loop only, then yarn over and pull through all 3 loops.

that is such a beautiful scarf and it’s nice to see the changes you made from the first time you made it in white! this yarn works really well I like the different colours it introduces, works so well with the pattern! 🙂
Thanks so much for joining the #WeekdayWearLinkup!
Alexandra says
Thanks so much! I am much happier with it now too. Wish I could find more colorways like this – I’d have many more pieces worked up in it.

This scarf is gorgeous! I love the neutral shades, they are so elegant. I have a bit of a scarf addiction and absolutely adore handmade ones like this. You are very talented, indeed! Thanks for linking with us!

Thanks so much, Shelbee! I’m right there with you. My only problem is I don’t get to enjoy them very often because of the warm Florida weather, but looking forward to cool weather the next couple months.
Ann says
