Granny Stitch Scarf Takes on Banff
During my Christmas visit to Banff to see my daughter, who works there, the Colour Block Granny Stitch Scarf, proved to be the perfect addition to my wardrobe. As we ventured through the snowy landscapes and enjoyed the winter wonderland of Banff, the scarf kept me warm and stylish. Its cozy embrace was the ideal companion for our memorable strolls and outdoor adventures, adding an extra touch of comfort to this heartwarming visit.
Best Yarn for a Crochet Scarf
When it comes to choosing the best yarn for crocheting a scarf, the Mary Maxim Natural Alpaca Tweed yarn stands out as an excellent option. With a composition of 77% acrylic, 20% alpaca, and 3% viscose, this worsted weight yarn offers a perfect blend of warmth, softness, and durability. Whether you’re creating sweaters, afghans, or cozy socks, this yarn proves to be versatile and reliable.

Substituting Yarn
Yarn substitution is an essential skill for crocheters, allowing for flexibility when the original yarn listed in a pattern is not available.
The Color Block Granny Scarf is crocheted using Mary Maxim Natural Alpaca yarn, a blend of acrylic, alpaca, and viscose that falls under #4 worsted weight. However, I’ve doubled the yarn by holding together 2 strands to achieve a super bulky weight yarn. It’s important to note that Natural Alpaca leans towards the lighter side of a worsted weight yarn.
If you’re considering substituting the yarn for this pattern, I’ve compiled a list of suitable alternatives on the next page, including options for super bulky weight yarn. However, it’s crucial to crochet a gauge swatch with your chosen yarn and adjust your hook size accordingly to match the pattern’s specified gauge for correct sizing. This step is crucial to ensure that the scarf turns out as intended.

Brava Worsted or Brava Tweed 218yds/100g
Swish Worsted – 110 yds/50g
