How the Scarf Is Made

Salmon, wasabi, rice and nori stripes of the crochet sushi scarf

  1. Foundation chain: its length sets the width of the scarf.
  2. Salmon section: rows are worked back and forth in orange.
  3. Color sections: the green "wasabi", white "rice" and black "nori" stripes are added in order.
  4. Repeat the sections until the scarf is long enough.
  5. Weave in the tails to finish.

Why It Is a Great First Project

A scarf is just a long rectangle, so there is no shaping to worry about. The color changes keep things fun, and the on-screen notes in the video explain each step clearly. It also makes a fun gift for any sushi lover.
