Hey crochet buddies! I’m sharing a snuggly scarf crochet pattern with you today and, like always, it’s totally free! The Be Cozy In The Alps Scarf Free Crochet Pattern is not just your next project - it’s your next cold weather staple.

The Be Cozy In The Alps Scarf Free Crochet Pattern features the linen stitch - you might know it as the moss stitch. This stitch is a real gem because it creates this amazing texture that makes any yarn look incredible. Especially those showstopper yarns you want to save for a project that really lets them shine.

And my special color changing technique gives you a lovely dripping effect to the colors that will surely stand out.

The best part? This scarf isn’t just pretty; it’s practical. The linen stitch gives it snug, tight weave that’s perfect for wrapping around your neck and pulling up over your nose on those windy days. You know, when you need something to keep you warm but also want to look fabulous? Yea, this scarf has got your back.

Did you spy the sections where the colors join? I love those cute little ‘drips!’ It’s such a fun way to shift between colors. And we all know what shifting between colors can mean - stash busting! This scarf would look great with more than four colors featured. It’s practically an invitation to dive into your stash and indulge in some color mixing.
