So grab your crochet hook, gather your favorite yarn hues, and let’s embark on this cozy crafting journey together!

- Ch 6, 3 dc in 3rd ch from the hook holding back the last st of each dc on your hook, you will have 4 stitches on your hook. Yarn over and pull through all four loops (cluster st made). Ch 3, make a second cluster stitch in the loop that closed your first cluster stitch. Join with a sl st where your first cluster begins. Ch 3, sk 2, sc in the next st. Repeat entire sequence until the end. Finish off. Weave in ends.
- The front of the bobble is on the other side. So flip over your project when you finish the edging and that is the “right side”.
- Repeat edging on the other side of the scarf.
And there you have it, a cozy color-block scarf to keep you warm and fashionable during Thanksgiving, Black Friday shopping sprees, Christmas, and whatever other holidays you might celebrate!
