This is my Granny Square Inspired Crochet Scarf. I'm so glad I made this because it is definitely my favorite. It's thick and warm and soft thanks to Caron 1 pound yarn.
This scarf is made by grouping several Double Crochets in each "space". This would be a great scarf, or stitch pattern, for a beginner because you're into the "spaces" not an actual stitch, except for the turning chain. There information about Turning Chains if you're a beginner.
