-



Hey! 

The Mikasa Scarf is an elegant, and effortlessly stylish piece that works with any outfit. Designed with simple, rhythmic stitches, it creates a beautiful textured pattern.

This pattern includes step-by-step written instructions, clear sizing guidance, and easy customization options so you can adjust the length and width, to match your style. Whether you use soft neutrals or bold colors, the Mikasa Scarf turns out warm, lightweight, and perfect for everyday wear.

There is a detailed tutorial for the same on my YouTube Channel which you can check out here.


Materials:

  • Yarn – Weight-3 acrylic yarn
  • Hook – 4mm hook
  • Scissors
  • Stitch Markers
  • Measuring Tape (optional)
  • Piece of 4-inch-wide cardboard (if adding tassel)
You can use this pattern with any type of yarn with the recommended hook size.


Abbreviations:

  • st/sts – stitch/stitches
  • ch – chain
  • hdc – half double crochet
  • BLO - Back Loop Only - instead of working in both the loops, work only into the back loop of the 



Pattern:

Foundation Chain:

  • Ch 280, or until the chain measures your desired scarf length.
  • Then ch1 extra (this does not count as a stitch).

Row 1:

  • hdc in the 2nd ch from hook, preferably in the back bumps.
  • hdc in every chain across.

You should have 280 hdc or the same number of stitches as your starting chain.

Row 2:

  • ch1, turn.
  • hdc in BLO in every stitch across. - (280 hdc)

Row 3 - Row 20:

  • Repeat Row 2.

You can stop earlier or continue beyond Row 20 depending on how wide you want your scarf. Aim for 16–20 cm or whatever width feels right for you.


Finishing:

  • Fasten off.
  • Weave in all ends neatly.

Tassels:

I didn’t make tassels for my scarf, but you can surely add it.

  • Cut a piece of cardboard to the height you want your tassels (e.g., 4 in / 10 cm).
  • Wrap yarn around the cardboard about 7 times or until thick enough.
  • Cut the yarn and snip the wrapped loops at one end to create equal strands.
  • Slide the strands off the cardboard and keep them together as a bundle.
  • Insert your hook through an edge stitch of the scarf.
  • Pull the center of the tassel bundle through to make a loop.
  • Pull the loose ends through the loop and tighten to secure.
  • Repeat across the edge:
  • One tassel per row = approx. 20 tassels per side
  • Add more for a denser fringe or fewer for a minimal look
  • Trim ends neatly,



That’s it! Your new favorite scarf is officially ready to wear.
