Infinity Scarf


This is my first crochet blog and I am definitely a beginner but if you love to crochet and love scarves this project is perfect for you. First begin by picking out your yarn, any weight will do just use the coordinating crochet hook. I chose a heavier yarn for the beige and gray scarves and used an size N hook, the red was a lighter yarn so I used a size J hook. You will need 2 skeins of yarn, depending on how long you want the scarf, you might need more yarn.


METHOD 1 - Red Scarf: (Thinner yarn size J hook)
Chain 25 depending on how wide you want your scarf.
Chain 2 more.
Double crochet 3 down from the end then double crochet all the way down the chain. 
Turn.
Chain 2.
Repeat double crochet and turn until you reached the desired length for the scarf.
Then single crochet the two ends together to create the seam, knot off and cut off excess yarn.












METHOD 2 - Beige/ Gray Scarf: (Thicker yarn size N hook)
Chain 200-250 depending on how long you want your scarf, the scarf should be able to loop around twice.
Crochet the ends together so you have a circle.
Chain 2.
Double crochet all the way down the chain.
Chain 2.
Crochet into the fist double crochet so that the circle continues.
Repeat double crochet for 5 rows or more until you reach the desired width.  
Knot off and cut off excess.



Finally slip it over your head, experiment with different widths and lengths using either method.
