Free pattern: Happy Day Scarf

This year I am working on gift sets each month, one per week. I thought a set with a fun and colorful scarf, beanie and mitts would be a great gift for lots of people. This scarf could be made in almost any size from a variety of yarns. It is also made from basic stitches so even beginners could give it a try.

As written, the scarf used 1.5 skeins of RHSS Retro Stripes and about 100 yards of white yarn.

This pattern is part of the 2022 Scarf and Hat of the Month cal with The Stitchin Mommy and Oombawka Design Crochet. Each month three scarf patterns are released and you get can get the patterns for free for a limited time.

The pattern for my scarf is available free below and you can get the other two scarf patterns at the following links:
