This crochet stitch pattern is insulating, interesting and geometrically gorgeous for a textured crochet scarf pattern. It features front and back post double crochet, foundation double crochet and a highly textured, offset oval fabric design. The stitch pattern has a multiple of 10 sts + 7 and it is a six-row repeat. Depending on your gauge, you can add more stitches in multiples of 10 to created a wider fabric or increase the row count in multiples of 6 rows for a longer fabric, too.
Listed below I have also included measurements and yarn estimates for a variety of rectangular flat fabic projects you can make with this beautiful stitch pattern.
