Edna’s Ruby Crochet Lace Scarf
Lace Crochet Scarf Pattern
Welcome back! After a long pause, I am thrilled to present to you the seventh addition to "The Gemstone Crochet Scarf Collection" - Edna's Crochet Ruby Lace Scarf. This collection is inspired by the vibrant colors of birthstones and my cherished children and nieces born in each corresponding month. As you might have guessed, Edna is my niece.
When designing Edna's Crochet Ruby Lace Scarf, I wanted to craft a piece that embodies the spirit of summer, spring, and fall. Using weight 3 yarn, I envisioned a scarf that would be light, airy, and flowy enough to grace your shoulders in all seasons. The delicate lace pattern adds a touch of sophistication, making it the perfect accessory for casual outings and special occasions.

This scarf's pattern is simple and elegant. By combining basic stitches like chains, single crochet, double crochet, and puff stitch, I ensured that crocheters of all skill levels could enjoy the creative process. Once you've mastered how to make the puff stitch, you'll find that the scarf is practically easy to make allowing you to bring this masterpiece to life.
As I worked on Edna's Crochet Ruby Lace Scarf, I couldn't help but feel a deeper connection to the project. Ruby, the color of the July birthstone, happens to be among my favorite colors. The act of crocheting became a joyful anticipation of the finished piece, knowing that it would soon envelop me in a shade that holds a special place in my heart.
Edna, the niece who inspired this creation, embodies the qualities of the ruby birthstone – passion, strength, and love. As you wrap yourself in its warmth and elegance, remember that you are not just wearing a scarf; you are embodying the essence of July and carrying a piece of Edna’s spirit with you, wherever you go.

Yarn
I had a blast designing and creating this scarf – the process was truly enjoyable. And you know what made it even better? The fact that Ruby happens to be one of my favorite colors. I couldn't help but feel happy as I put the finishing touches on the project. Now, I'm eagerly looking forward to draping myself in this exquisite scarf.
When it came to choosing the yarn for this delicate crochet lace scarf, I had a clear vision in mind. I wanted a yarn with a weight of 2 or 3, and fortunately, I stumbled upon this Yarn Bee yarn in Hobby Lobby. This is my first experience with 44th Street Yarn Bee, and I must say, I'm absolutely thrilled with my decision. Working with this yarn proved to be a breeze, and I'm already excited about using this yarn on more projects.
For those who might have trouble finding Hobby Lobby’s Yarn Bee 44th Street yarn, you can use any Weight 3 yarn.
Design
When I set out to design this scarf, one thing was crystal clear in my mind – I had to incorporate a lace pattern. I envisioned creating a piece that would seamlessly transition through spring, summer, and fall, something versatile yet elegant. That's when I stumbled upon the perfect pattern adorned with charming chains and delicate shells. This choice gave the scarf a wonderful texture, making it an ideal companion for both warm and cooler weather.
As I completed the project and held the finished scarf in my hands, I was so amazed. It turned out just as I had imagined – a blend of softness, lightness, and that airy quality all in one. The scarf drapes beautifully, allowing it to flow with grace, capturing the essence of movement and style that I had envisioned from the very start.
