Cozy Infinity Scarf

I couldn't quite figure out the the benefits of an infinity scarf over a normal scarf when I was shopping the other day, but I was totally convinced of its awesomeness after seeing this pattern at On the Wings of a Dove.  It is the perfect quick and easy Christmas present, so if you are a friend of mine, and a girl, you might be getting one!


The pattern requires 2 skeins of Wool Ease Thick and Quick, but you can also use any bulky yarn.  I used some yarn I had bought years ago for a quilt that I never got around to, and then bought some more at Michael's on Black Friday.

Of course, being me, I forgot my wallet on the busiest shopping day of the year, so I had to fight the traffic, the crowds, and stand in line twice to buy my yarn.




So far, I've made 2, for a friend at home and for my mom.  Each takes a couple of hours of work, while watching tv or watching mr. bubs totter around.

Brooke at On the Wings of a Dove has another infinity scarf pattern that uses a single crochet instead of a double crochet.  Maybe I'll switch it up and try that one too!

  1. Okay ChiWei this is the one I was referring to, today at lunch time. But then again I don't know how to crotchet either so teaching me this will take more than you just posting the step by step. Luv the blog!

  2. I just learned to knit (VERY basic knitting - garter stitch only) ... I'm working on what I hope will look like a cowl when I'm done. I'm using Wool Ease Quick and Thick too ... fingers crossed! Yours turned out great! :D

  3. I tried to click the link for the pattern but Chrome blocked it, told me not to click it as it (brooke and dove) contained malware and I would get a virus :(
