Smells Like Team Spirit

Smells Like Team Spirit is a quick project that is crocheted lengthwise, either in the round for a cowl or back and forth for a scarf. Three chains of contrasting slip stitches add a pop of color to a background of half double crochet. (Psst! This accent is a great place to use up scraps or a yarn that isn’t neck-soft.) And since you’re working speedy stitches with worsted weight yarn, you just might set a personal record for fastest crochet project. Whichever team you root for, you’ll be the real winner with your sporty new scarf!*



Suggested cowl/scarf lengths are provided, but this can easily be customized to suit your desired length.
