Echo Scarf Crochet Pattern
The Echo Crochet Scarf gets its name from the cool mirror effect in the stitch pattern—it literally “echoes” itself! This creates a balanced, eye-catching design that looks great in all kinds of yarn, whether you go for a sleek solid or something with a little sparkle, like the sequin yarn I used in the video tutorial. The pattern is super flexible, so you can easily adjust the size to make it just the way you like.
You’ll find everything you need to crochet the scarf below, including the yarn, crochet hook, a free pattern, and a video tutorial. If you like this pattern, please share it!

Crochet Tutorials
If you’re new to crochet, no worries! I have many beginner tutorial videos to guide you through every step of the process. My tutorials are designed to be easy to follow and will help you master the basics and beyond. You can use the search bar anytime to look for a particular stitch or technique.
Crochet Stitch Used For The Scarf
The stitch used throughout the scarf is double crochet with chains added in for the lace effect. If you are new to crochet I have slower video tutorials available that will walk you through working the double crochet used in this pattern that you can watch before you start this project.
Yarn Selection
The yarn used in the original printed pattern is Drops Fabel Sock Yarn. It is a durable yet soft fingering-weight yarn, perfect for socks, accessories, and lightweight garments. Made from a blend of 75% wool and 25% polyamide, it offers warmth, elasticity, and strength for long-lasting projects. Unlike some sock yarns, Fabel has a slightly softer feel, making it great for more than just socks.
Yarn Used In The Video
In the video version of the scarf, I used a Sequin Yarn I purchased from Temu. It has multiple colors and sizes of sequins woven throughout giving a very glittery look to the finished scarf. While it looks beautiful, I bought it to see if it is easy to work with—so if you’re curious about how it handles, drapes, and holds up, be sure to watch until the end of the video where I share my full review and whether I think it’s worth picking up!
Other Yarn Options
If you’d like to substitute another yarn for the scarf, you’ll need about 350 yards of lightweight yarn to match the gauge and size.
Below are some other options that are a great substitute for the Drops Fabel Yarn, which come in different price ranges.

Crochet Hook Used For Pattern
You’ll need a 3.5mm [US- E] hook for this project. This scarf can really be made in all sorts of yarn weights though so adjust your hook size accordingly.
After testing numerous brands of crochet hooks, I’ve narrowed down my favorites. Below, you’ll find my top picks, ranked from least to most expensive.

Additional Supplies Needed
The only other thing you will need is a yarn needle to weave in the ends. My favorite yarn needles are made of metal, they are easy to slide through any yarn. I like the Susan Bates option below.
