If there’s one thing I love in the fall its chunky scarves. I love big, warm scarves because I love to feel all wrapped up and cozy. This new crochet pattern for a Scarf with Sleeves using Red Heart’s Hygge yarn is simply perfection.

Hygge Scarf with Sleeves

This scarf is long. It is wide. It is plush, and cozy, and warm. THIS SCARF HAS SLEEVES!! It is also my new favorite piece of clothing. ♥ I decided to name it the “Give Me a Hygge” scarf because of the way you pronounce the yarn: Hoo-gah. Give me a HOO-GAH!

Red Heart Hygge Yarn Pattern for Scarf with Sleeves

Do you watch the weekly LIVE videos on the Heart Hook Home Facebook page? If you don’t, you should watch the video where I modeled – or tried to model! LOL! – this new pattern last week. It. Was. Hilarious.

Give me a Hygge Scarf with Sleeves

I promise that by this week’s live video time (always at 7:00 pm CST and always on Thursdays) I will have mastered the art of wearing this beautiful scarf. To wear this scarf you can wrap it around the back of your body OR the front, then insert your arms into the sleeves and settle the scarf into place around your shoulders. Play around with how you want to wear it.

This pattern uses the Lemon Peel stitch, a remarkably mindless and repetitive stitch that works up super quickly with this bulky weight yarn. I love the bulky size of this Red Heart Hygge yarn, the texture is to die for, and the feel of the fabric when worked up? FABULOUS!!

I asked my Mom to model the scarf after my step-sister’s baby shower this weekend, and she is just as beautiful as ever! ♥ Thank you, Mom!

Cuffs:

Lay out scarf. On each end, fold to create sleeve and overlap by 10 stitches. Hold the place with stitch markers and count your stitches. You should have 26 sts total around the opening, 10 of which you will be working through both sides of the fabric. The width should be about 5.5” – 6” across at row one of the cuff. Insert your hook through both sides of the fabric where overlapped to start. (see photo)

How to put sleeves on a scarf

Row 1: Sc in same st and across those 10 overlapped sts. Sc around entire opening. Join to top of first sc with sl st. (26)

Row 2: ch-1, turn, sc in each st around. Join to top of first sc w/ sl st. (26)

Row 3: Ch-1, turn, sc2tog, sc in each st around. Join to top of first sc w/ sl st. (25)

Rows 4 – 10: repeat row 2 (25)

Row 11: Ch-1, turn, sc in all but last 2 sts, sc2tog. Join to top of first sc w/sl st.(24)

Row 12 – 14: repeat row 2 (24)

Row 15: repeat row 3 (23)

Row 16 – 18: repeat row 2 (23)

Row 19: repeat row 11 (22)

Row 20 – 27: repeat row 2 (22)

Complete the sleeve (One Size):

Lay out the sleeve (one at a time) so that the fabric naturally gets wider, like a sleeve would. Measure up from the first row of the cuff until you reach 10″ high. You want the width at the “top” of the sleeve to be about 7” across. Use a stitch marker to mark the place where the pieces intersect and to keep two pieces from separating as you sew.

Scarf with Sleeves Instructions

Using your remaining yarn, sew from the cuff up those 10” on the sleeve. Flip the sleeve inside out and sew that inside flap closed as well. Weave in all ends. Do the same to the other side.

    Love it! Just finished it, was my first ever large scale crochet project. I’d say it was easy for beginners, however I did have to read the sleeve part a number of times before I understood what I needed to do. Thanks!!!

      Hi Julie! I used the 8 oz. skeins and needed 4 for the One-size and 7 for the plus-size. Hope this helps!

    Hello, I love this pattern so much and am nearly finished (working on the cuffs now). I've noticed on row 3 of the plus sized cuff section the final stitch count says 31. With the sc2tog stitches in this row shouldn't it be 12? Or am I missing something! Thank you for all the time and effort you put into creating this price to share!!

      Hi Melissa! In row 3 of the cuffs, you are only doing 1 sc2tog at the beginning, then sc in each remaining stitch. So we are only decreasing 1 stitch.

          Julie, it could work, however I can't find any information how many yards are in a skein, so I couldn't tell you what size you could make with it.

      Hi Sara! The plus size would be for sizes 18/20 and up...I would suggest doing the one size. Hope this helps!

    A pattern I have been wishing for, at last! My arms and chest get cold when I’m snow machining or four wheeling. This will be perfect to wear under my down jacket. Thank you!

    I am trying to figure out if I can make a knit one of these. I have never been able to get the hang of crochet.

    Hello! I love this pattern. I’m to to crazy about the lemon peel stitch. Do you think this would be ok to just do a double crochet? Or maybe would a half-double be better?

    I finally finished this and it's lovely. I cannot figure out how to wrap it so it crosses in front like in your photos. Can you direct me to a video of how to dot that for real? I saw the video where you played w it over and over and never quite got it right. It was funny watching the video. But now it is just frustrating! I made this for a gift and would really like to show her how to wear it as well. Thank you!

    I mainly saved this post because your mom looks so much like one of my aunts. So much so I had to do a few double takes!!! I'm also excited to make this scarf.

    Love the looks but I don't get how to finish the sleeves at the end. I am new at this but love it. Could you do a tutorial on this. Thanks for any help u can give me.

      Hey Jeannie, with the way it is constructed, I think you could get several different looks with this. Just depends on how you wrap it. I can't wait to make one!

    • Heart Hook Home says

      Hi Jeannie! It's all a matter of where you tuck and where you pull...lol. But it will cover the chest area if you pull it down a bit in the front. Hope this helps!

    When I saw the first picture of you wearing it, I thought you had added sleeves to an infinity scarf. This would be easier I think.
