Crochet Textured Shells Scarf, Written Pattern and Video Tutorial

If you're an advanced beginner in crochet looking to tackle a project that’s both simple yet stunning, the Textured Shells Scarf is perfect for you! 

With its flowing design and elegant texture, this scarf is a versatile accessory that adds warmth and style to any wardrobe. 

The Textured Shells Scarf uses a combination of basic and slightly more complex stitches (front post double crochets), making it an excellent step up from beginner-level projects. 

You'll practice foundational techniques while exploring new ways to create texture and interest.

The yarn I used is Alize Angora Gold (20% wool, 80% acrylic). I used two skeins in color Green Almond. 

This yarn is available on Amazon!

Its soft halo effect creates a lightweight yet warm scarf. 

The hook size is E (3.5 mm). 

The finished measurements are about 70 inches long and 11 inches wide. 

Despite its lacy appearance, this scarf is warm and perfect for winter. 

The secret lies in the yarn’s composition: the acrylic provides durability, while the wool adds warmth and softness. 

The 3D shell stitch not only looks stunning but is also fun and satisfying to crochet.

The Textured Shells Scarf is crafted using a simple, two-row repeat. This makes it a relaxing project to work on while still producing an impressive result.

Written Pattern: Available in my Etsy and Ravelry shops for easy download.

Video Tutorial: A detailed video tutorial is included with the pattern for those who need visual guidance or want to follow along step-by-step.

Happy crocheting!

This size makes the scarf long enough to wrap multiple times or drape stylishly over any outfit.

Four skeins of Lion Brand Landscapes in the Rain Forest colorway. This yarn is 100% acrylic, soft, and has a slight sheen that enhances the shell pattern.  

A size I (5.5 mm) crochet hook. This size worked perfectly to balance the pattern’s texture and the yarn’s weight.
