Counting stitches.....

Just finished Nanna Rose's popcorn stitch necklet in time for her birthday and only had to restart it once to get the stitch count right! I used a ball of Rowan Felted Tweed in a lovely moss green and a no. 4 hook....
Ch 14
1st Row:
Miss 1 ch, 1 dc in each ch to end
(13 st).
2nd Row:
1dc, 1ch in first dc, *popcorn in next dc, 1tr in next dc, repeat from * to end.
3rd Row:
1ch, 1dc in first tr, *1dc in top of popcorn, 1dc in next tr, repeat from * to end, working last dc in turning chain.

Last 2 rows form the pattern, continue in pattern til scarf reaches desired length ( approx . 1 ball of wool).
Match one end to side of scarf and attach with running stitch.
Popcorn Stitch:
Work 5 treble in next stitch, draw up the last loop.
Remove hook from loop, then insert hook from back to front through 1st of 5 treble.
Replace hook through raised loop and draw through top of 1st treble.
Work 1ch to fasten.

Ta-dah!!

I created the pattern for the necklet based on the pattern for the Popcorn Bag in the Crochet Modern Vintage book by Panda. (Thanks Rach!)

Happy crocheting..... X em
