I love the way you explained the foundation chain stitch. I have done it but found it a difficult stitch. But your explanation made the stitch make sense. It is now much easier for me. Thank You.
I got my heather yarn a few days ago but I’m flying tonight, so I’m going to start on the plane to Portugal which is 6 hours, 40 minutes long. So excited, I love this pretty scarf! ❤
Oh my goodness! How did I miss this tutorial?!? My daughter was asking about something similar to this just yesterday. I am so very happy to have found this. Thank you, Anja! This is just beautiful.
Ohhhhh this is perfect. I made a shawl from a kitand patter and it is soooooo long. I’m going to turn it into this… thanks for sharing. It’s gorgeous ❤
I have always thought the foundation row was impossible (I have only been crocheting 3 years) but watching your video I'm sure now I can do it. That will be a long chain for first time doing it but I'm definitely up for the challenge finally. I am so excited to try this since it has so many uses. Thank you for a simple beautiful video.
What a fantastic idea, I love it and will put it on my list... I'm a beginner but will definitely try this once I have the wool..... Thank you for your videos, they always inspire me 💖 xXx
So cool! And what a coincidence - I just got 5 balls each of duck egg and olive Aztec from you to decide which to use to make the Lovelock shawl, which I am nearly finished. So now I happen to have 5 balls of duck egg lying around. Might as well put them to good use and make this neat little number, eh? Thanks, Anja!
Thank you! You will need to carry on doing them and try placing them around yourself like I show you at the start of the video ( around the 5 minute mark I think ) Good luck, Anja x
Omg!* Have just finished my sleeves and really to sew the seams together! It turned out beautiful!! My stitch count is different than yours in the tutorial, Am I safe to assume that the seam should just about reach elbow length??
Oh, do try it! Once you have mastered crocheting a foundation stitch row, you will never want to do a beginning chain again! Yay for Yarn has tutorials on how to do all the foundation stitch rows if you want to focus on learning it first. Honestly, I start with this kind of foundation rather than chaining whenever I come across a pattern requiring a starting chain. And as Anja points out, this results in a fabric with more stretch. You won't regret learning this one!
Hi Chris, there is no written pattern for this one, a lot of my tutorials are just that, video tutorials, I have a full time job, and with that and the website plus designing I just don't have the time to write patterns too, sorry, Anja x
I love this design. Perfect for the winter coming here in Canada. Another project to start.
Have fun!

You are so welcome! Thank you for persevering with it, Anja x
“It’s…SOMETHING!” Lol love it 😍 ❤
I absolutely loved this yarn got to by some
Oh, I adore this!
This looks beautiful, I've been trying to find something like this after watching the new Willow series on Disney plus.
interesting as my first thought when I saw this video, was she inspired by watching the Willow series T x
I’m so excited. I was just thinking about one of these and low and behold…Anja presents the pattern!!!❤
Interesting. I saw something similar just a couple of days ago. Glad you have a tutorial for it. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Love that pattern. Looks so easy to remember. I like those where I can just zone out and get in the groove.
Yes it is stageluvr91, and lovely to wear also, thank you for watching, Anja x

Stunning! Definately making this. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Karen, enjoy. Anja x
You are so adorable look at that smile. Pretty is as pretty does. Fits you doll.
Awww, thank you very much Cynthia, Anja x
Is this customizable by size? I’m a bigger gal but I love how this looks.
Just make it bigger, more chains to begin with Melissa, Anja x
It’s a cross between a bolero, a wrap, a scarf and a cardigan! It’s a bolapscarfigan!
As usual, your tutorials are superb. 👏 You make it so easy. Quick question, how do I know how many foundation DCs I need? I am a 7XL. Thank you.
Thank you! You will need to carry on doing them and try placing them around yourself like I show you at the start of the video ( around the 5 minute mark I think ) Good luck, Anja x
@@OpheliaTalks Thanks Anja. I'll give it a go. Here goes nothing...😊
I need one in size 4x.
Omg!* Have just finished my sleeves and really to sew the seams together! It turned out beautiful!! My stitch count is different than yours in the tutorial, Am I safe to assume that the seam should just about reach elbow length??
Great job Vicki, yes about elbow length l found is the most comfortable! Thank you, Anja x
Hi anja can you do this with an ordinary chain I don't know how to do the stitch you are doing xx
Oh, do try it! Once you have mastered crocheting a foundation stitch row, you will never want to do a beginning chain again! Yay for Yarn has tutorials on how to do all the foundation stitch rows if you want to focus on learning it first. Honestly, I start with this kind of foundation rather than chaining whenever I come across a pattern requiring a starting chain. And as Anja points out, this results in a fabric with more stretch.

I have a tutorial explaining the foundation DC here Jayne....
I hope it helps you, Anja x

This is beautiful. Is there a written pattern to follow?
The video is the pattern!
What size would this fit up to? I’d like to send one to a relative but I think she’s a bit bigger up top.
It is quite stretchy, but maybe you could make it longer, it's basically a rectangle. Thank you herascamander5706, Anja x
Is it acceptable to just chain the 251 stitches, then double crochet in each stitch across? I dread the foundation stitch🥴
Yes Anne, if that's what you want to do, but make sure it's a nice loose chain or you'll lose the stretch. Anja x
@@OpheliaTalks Thank you! And thank you for the beautiful scarf! It was a pleasure to stitch!
Where do I find the written pattern?
Hi Chris, there is no written pattern for this one, a lot of my tutorials are just that, video tutorials, I have a full time job, and with that and the website plus designing I just don't have the time to write patterns too, sorry, Anja x
What size is this?
I'm a medium maverickmayhem6409, to make it bigger you'd just need to add more chains and rows. Thank you, Anja x
@@OpheliaTalksThank you 😊
❤️👍🥰😍🧶👏👏👏😘
