I am crocheting a scarf; can someone please tell me if there is any way I can stop the bottom from turning up at the corners?

Thank you.

Again, as in the last post, it's also the nature of the beast. The chain doesn't even have to be too tight, although if it is the curl will be even more pronounced.

If you haven't gone too far in your scarf, you might consider ripping it out and making your chain with a hook a couple of sizes larger than the one you will use for the rest of the piece.

Turning up at the edges is sometimes the result of the foundation chains being tighter than your working stitches. Depending upon the fiber used for your scarf, you may be able to block this out after you finish.
