This Double-Sided Retro Granny Square Scarf is a striking accessory created using interlocking crochet technique, which cleverly mimics the look of classic granny squares without the need to join individual motifs. Worked in just two contrasting colors, this reversible scarf features a bold, geometric pattern with a vintage flair, seamlessly integrated into the fabric. The interlocking method creates a double-layered effect, making the scarf warm, structured, and visually dynamic on both sides. Its smooth, polished finish and sturdy edges give it a refined, professional look while maintaining retro charm.

This pattern is made using interlocking crochet technique. Interlocking crochet is created using double crochet and chain stitches and two colors. You will work each row twice, always in one direction only (from right to left if right-handed, from left to right, if left-handed) once with the main color and then with the complementary color. All the stitches made with the main color will be placed into the main color stitches and all the stitches made with the complementary color will be placed into the complementary color stitches.

There is no need to cut the yarn, turn your work after both colored rows are complete.

Your work will be double sided; there is no right or wrong side.
