Scarf: I love Greens

This was a quick scarf created due to my love of yet another green/moss green yarn, Shade 315 it is lightweight chunky that worked well for me on the 10mm hook used.  It is 25% wool and 75% acrylic, feels lovely and drapes great.  I haven't blocked it as yet as was in a hurry to share, but to be honest I may leave it...For me this is a scarf to adorn with flower brooches that I have or to wrap around to feel like I am walking in the woods.  Enjoy ...oh be nice to me its my first time of sharing a crochet design ;)
 more pictures to follow ;)


**This is so simple a scarf that it is listed below as guides for your enjoyment:**  Not tested and I am sure others have done similar...but I am loving it!

Foundation Row: Chain 153 stitches (or a length that you feel will be suitable for your needs)
**Row 1:** sc into each ch, chain one, turn.
**Row 2:** (Fringing Patern) *Chain 8, sc 2nd chain from hook, sc to end (7 sc in each fringe or fern leaf as I was calling them) slip stitch to join, slip stitch into next stitch repeat from * until you have worked all along one side of the 152 stitches.
**Row 3:** Make one fringe of chain 8,  sc 2nd chain from hook, sc to end (7 sc ) slip stitch this will be the edge of row 2 and allow you to turn. Now repeat row 2, inserting your hook into the back loops of the foundation chain as you make each fringe/leaf.  To complete make one fringe on the edge of the row to allow to turn. Finish off ends.  Admire your beautiful scarf and consider as I am, to block or not to block!  ENJOY!!!
