- 1 skein Orange yarn

- 1 skein Green yarn

Abbreviations (US terms)
- ch = Chain
- sc = Single crochet
- puff stitch = Puff stitch (no abbreviation)
- dc = Double Crochet
Notes
- Note: Puff stitches can vary in thickness; typically, they have 7 loops, but I used 11 for extra fluffiness.
- Use any colors; avoid chunky yarn—stick to worsted or DK weight.
- Scarf dimensions: 6 inches wide, 5.5-6 ft long.
- Consider turning it into a blanket or adding fringe for extra flair.
Instructions
- This pattern is made in long rows.
- Row 1: With the purple yarn ch x200 + 5. If you want to change the starting chain, make sure it is divisible by 4 and then add 5.
- Row 2: In the second ch from the hook make a sc. Continue making a sc in each ch for the rest of the row (204). Ch x3 and then turn.
- Row 3: *Skip the first 3 stitches from the previous row and in the next stitch make a puff stitch, ch, and then another puff stitch.*
- *The puff stitch is made by yarning over, inserting the hook into the stitch, yarning over, going back through the loops and repeating the process many times. You should have 3 loops on your hook. Don't go through the loops, but instead yarn over and repeat the same process. You should repeat this until you have 11 loops on your hook, or doing this for a total of 5 times. Then yarn over and go through all 11 loops on your hook. Ch x1 to secure the puff stitch closed. (this does not count as the ch needed in between the puff stitches*
- Repeat what is in the asterisks until the last 4 stitches.
- Skip 3 stitches and create a dc in the last stitch. Fasten off the purple yarn and switch to blue. Ch x3 and turn.
- Row 4: In the next chain space in between the V make a puff, ch, puff. Repeat until the end of the row. The Vs should be stacked on top of each other.
- When you get to the end of the row, make a dc and switch the yarn to light blue. Then ch x3 and turn.
- Row 5-9: Repeat row 4 but switch the colors every row:
- Green, yellow, orange, red.
- At the end of the red row just ch x1 and turn.
- Last row: With the red yarn, make a sc into the first stitch of the row. Then 1 sc in the puff, 1 sc in the next chain space, 1 sc in the puff stitch and then repeat for the rest of the row.
- When you get to the end of the row, fasten off and weave in any ends.
- And now you have a cute crochet rainbow scarf made with the puffy v stitch! Happy crocheting!
