MEANDERING PAW PRINTS PET SCARVES

SIZE: neck measurement excluding tie: x-small 9”, small 12 ½”, medium 16 ½”, large 24”

MATERIALS: Size I/9/5.50mm crochet hook, Worsted weight/medium/size 4 yarn (XS 0.4oz/25 yds, S 0.6oz/35 yds, M 1.1oz/60 yds,  L 1.8oz/80 yds), scissors, yarn needle

GAUGE: without blocking. The first 2 rows of pattern from center bottom to top = 1 ½”, across the top of 2nd row = 2 ½”

TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS:
Ch – chain
Dc – double crochet
Sl st – Slip Stitch
St (s) – stitch (es)
Sk – skip (skipped)

NOTES:
1) Ch 3 at the beginning of each row counts as the first stitch (first dc) of that row.
2) To help keep track of your stitches, the row stitch counts are in parenthesis at the end of each row. Chains are counted as individual stitches, except where you are instructed to “2 sc in ch 4 sp” then the entire ch sp is counted as one and you will work into the next stitch following the ch 4 sp.
3) Dc in last sk st: Insert the hook into the skipped stitch indicated and continue with your dc in the same manner as the other dc. This binds the two sts together into a cross stitch.

EDGING:
Continuing from the end of the last sc row. Work 2 more sc in last st to work around corner. Sc evenly down the side (3 sc in the end of each row should work, but if this makes your work curl you can do 3 in the end of one row and 2 in the end of the next. Whatever you need to make it work smoothly). 3 sc at the bottom point, then work evenly up the other side. When you reach the final corner (first sc of last row of scarf) work 2 more sc in that corner, sl st in first sc. Finish off.

TIE:
Ch 25. Join with a sl st in the last sc you made on the edging. Sl st in each st across the top row of scarf. Ch 25. Finish off. You do not need to weave in the tail of the tie, but you do want to make sure the knots are secure and then clip the tail to approx 1/8”- 1/4”.
