Tuxie Keyhole Scarf Crochet Pattern

Tuxie Keyhole Scarf Crochet Pattern

The Tuxie Keyhole Scarf Crochet Pattern came to be because I was watching a friend’s dog, Tuxie,  for a few days.  He’s a small dog and he was always shivering. 

So, I decided to make him something to keep him warm and make him more adorable too.  You can crochet the Keyhole Scarf to accessorize your woof-ing dog and make a purr-fect accessory for your cat.

Materials:
75-200 yards of #4 Worsted Weight Yarn
US H or 5mm Crochet Hook
Tapestry Needle
Scissors

Abbreviations/Stitches Used:
sc = single crochet
hdc = half double crochet
ch = chain

the scarf can be customized to fit your pet perfectly

Gauge:
US H Hook or 5mm Crochet Hook
12 st x 12 rows = 4”
due to different thickness of yarn, you may need to go up or down a hook size to meet gauge)

Gauge Swatch:
R1: ch 13, sc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc in next st, *sc in next st, hdc in next st.  rep from * across.  ch 1, turn (12 st) 

R2-R12:  *sc, hdc in next st. rep from * across.  turn (12 st)

Special Notes:

  • Because there are so many different sizes of cats and dogs, the pattern is easily customized.
  • To easily customize the fit to your pet, measuring their neck size would be a great help for you to figure out the perfect fit to it.
  • Because this is a scarf, if you are customizing it, I suggest measuring between their ears to the bottom of their chest and doubling the measurement.  
  • A helpful tip is to remember the even st is the hdc and the odd st is a sc 
  • Below are 3 suggested sizes.
