This free crochet scarf pattern includes written instructions and a step-by-step video tutorial to guide you through making your own Duille Scarf.
The Inspiration Behind the Duille Scarf
The name Duille comes from the Irish word for leaf. When I discovered the textured crochet stitch used in this design, its appearance immediately reminded me of falling autumn leaves and I knew I wanted to create something with it.
I’ve always loved oversized scarves, so I decided to turn this beautiful stitch into a generously sized accessory that could be wrapped around the neck several times for extra warmth.
Although I designed the Duille Scarf to be oversized, the pattern also explains how to adjust its length and width to your preferences. I’ve finished mine with long fringe at both ends, but you can leave this off for a simpler look.
Yarn
The yarn I used for the Crochet Duille Scarf was Fluffy Day XL in the shade Rust (18) from Hobbii. If you are a lover of their DK version of this yarn, you will surely love this. Fluffy Day XL is a weight 5, bulky yarn that is both light and thick.
Fluffy Day XL is spun from premium acrylic yarn with a brushed appearance, giving it a thick mohair appearance. A yarn like this is perfect for cardigans, sweaters and scarves because it can be washed easily due to the acrylic content of this fibre.
This yarn line has a big range of colours in the line, so I’m sure there is something for everyone.
