Crochet • Tunisian Crochet • Knit
If you love simple, rhythmic projects that let your yarn take center stage, I’m so excited to introduce the Woolgatherer Scarf Trio — three beginner-friendly infinity scarves designed to work with just a few beautiful DK skeins. Whether you prefer crochet, Tunisian crochet, or knitting, there’s a Woolgatherer version perfect for your craft and your style.
Each scarf uses clean, eye-pleasing Fibonacci-inspired striping to create movement, balance, and visual interest. These are the kinds of scarves that look effortless but intentional, cozy but lightweight enough for everyday wear, and fun to customize with colors from your stash, a curated set, or your favorite Woolgatherer box.
The best part? All three versions use 2–4 DK weight skeins — making them perfect for yarn clubs, mystery packs, gift knitting/crocheting, or that special set you’ve been saving.
The Tunisian Woolgatherer Scarf
The Tunisian version is soft, rhythmic, and wonderfully approachable for first-time Tunisian makers. The simple stitch used throughout creates an elegant, flat fabric that makes every stripe shine. This version has incredible drape and looks gorgeous wrapped twice around the neck or worn long and relaxed.
Why You’ll Love It:
Uses only one stitch
Perfect gateway project for learning Tunisian crochet
Lightweight enough for all-season wear
Looks equally lovely in two high-contrast shades or gentle tonal shifts
If you’ve wanted to try Tunisian crochet, this is one of the coziest places to start.
The Crochet Woolgatherer Scarf
This version uses traditional crochet and has the quickest hook-to-FO path of the three. The stitch pattern creates a soft, airy texture with just enough interest to keep you engaged while still being blissfully relaxing.
Why You’ll Love It:
Beginner-friendly
Great texture with minimal effort
Works well with 2 - 4 colorways of DK yarn
Stripes feel playful and modern
Perfect gift crochet
If you like satisfying progress and a soothing, uncomplicated repeat, this is the one for you.
The Knit Woolgatherer Scarf
The knit version is the most classic of the trio — crisp, simple, and effortless. It’s the ideal first project for new knitters or a calming “evening project” for more experienced ones. The clean stockinette-style fabric (with helpful edges that don’t curl!) lets your color choices do all the heavy lifting.
Why You’ll Love It:
Truly beginner-friendly — this was your first knit finished object!
Smooth, modern look
Perfect canvas for Fibonacci stripes
Lovely drape and wearability
Makes shop bundles and curated sets look amazing
If you’re knit-curious or want something peaceful for your needles, this version feels timeless.
Make Your Own
The Woolgatherer Scarf Trio brings together everything I love about designing: approachable stitches, soothing rhythm, thoughtful colorplay, and projects that are as fun to make as they are to wear. Whether you knit, crochet, or love Tunisian crochet, there’s a version here for you — and I can’t wait to see your color combinations.
If you make one (or all three!), please tag @violet.loops so I can see your Woolgatherer palette come to life.
