Learn to Crochet a Scarf

I think I am finished with my adventure to update/improve/change my crochet classes. It has been interesting, but I am much more pleased with my personalized instructions/patterns than just the basic info. I am hoping to further improve my classes, one day, by making a youtube page where my students can view videos of me as reminders/extensions of my classes. Wish me luck with that :] Here is the scarf pattern I have paired with my learn to crochet class:

Crochet Scarf

Start here: Chain 17

Skipping first chain, insert hook into the second chain from hook, single crochet in this chain, single crochet in the next 15 chains

Turn work so that your hook is on the right-hand side

Row 2: Chain 2, yarn over, skipping first stitch, insert hook into second stitch from hook, complete double crochet in this stitch, double crochet in next 13 stitches, double crochet in chain

Turn work so that your hook is on the right-hand side

Row 3: Chain 3, yarn over twice, skipping first stitch, insert hook into second stitch from hook, complete treble crochet in this stitch, treble crochet in next 13 stitches, treble crochet in chain

Turn work so that your hook is on the right-hand side

Row 4: Repeat row 2 (double crochet)

Turn work so that your hook is on the right-hand side

Row 5: chain 1, Skipping first stitch, insert hook into the second stitch from hook, single crochet in this stitch, single crochet in next 13 stitches, single crochet in chain

Turn work so that your hook is on the right-hand side

Repeat rows 2 through 5 until you reach the end of your yarn, and bind off. Hurray!

To bind off, pull tail of yarn through stitch on hook.

Now you just have to weave your yarn ends into your work.
