AD-FREE PDF FOR $2.99 AVAILABLE AT THE END OF THE POST

MATERIALS:

H hook

1 skein CARON simply soft (desired color)

scissors

tapestry needle

CROCHET TERMS:

CH (chain)

SC (single crocet)

DC (double crochet)

FINISHED DIMENSIONS:

7 inches wide x 40 inches around

PATTERN NOTES:

I tend to place a twist in my infinity scarves because of the added dimension it provides. If this scarf needs to be longer you can easily add another skein or half of a skein on. SL ST the ends together either with or without the twist.

THE PATTERN:

CH 37

R1 – place 2 DC in the 4th chain from the hook. Skip the next stitch. SC into the next stitch. *skip the next stitch. Place 3 DC into the next stitch. Skip the next stitch. Place a SC into the next stitch. Repeat from * across to the last 3 stitches. You will skip the next stitch. Place 2 DC into the next stitch and place 1 DC into the last stitch. CH 1. Turn.

R2 – SC into the same stitch as your CH 1. SC into the next stitch. * CH 1 and skip the next stitch. DC into the next stitch. CH 1 and skip the next stitch. SC into the next stitch. Repeat from * across until the last stitch. You will place a SC into the last stitch. CH 3. Turn.

R3 – (chain 3 counts as DC) place 2 DC into the next stitch. Skip the next stitch. SC into the next stitch. *skip the next stitch. Place 3 DC into the next stitch. Skip the next stitch. Place a SC into the next stitch. Repeat from * across to the last 3 stitches. You will skip the next stitch. Place 2 DC into the next stitch and place 1 DC into the last stitch. CH 1. Turn.

R4 – end of skein: repeat rows 2 and 3. Tie off leaving a long tail.

SEAMING TOGETHER:

To connect this scarf together, you will simply SL ST the ends.

    Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful pattern! I’ve been searching for days now for a scarf pattern to make for my daughter for Christmas. I didn’t think I’d find one I really liked until I found this one on Pinterest! It’s gorgeous! I’ve already started making it and I just love it! I’ll share a picture of it when I complete it. Thank you so much! 🙂

    Beautiful stitch but I’m finding my stitches are awfully tight. Do you think I could go up a hook size and still get it looking like yours? I’m having trouble finding my stitches in my yarn color so I’m wondering if they’re a bit bigger if that would help!

      I believe going up a hook size might be the perfect solution! I tend to crochet looser. If you do it more tight changing your hook size will likely fix the issue.

    Can I use this pattern to make a shawl/wrap? I’m a large person and most of the patterns I find are not wide enough to cover my arms. Would I just need to double to beginning chain? Thanks!

      Hi Joan, Yes! You can absolutely adjust the size and turn it into a rectangular shawl/wrap, just chain a multiple of 4 + 1 to your desired size.

    Hello,

    Please help me with row #2. What does it mean when you say ” SC into the same stitch as your CH 1″.
    Im having very hard time putting a SC into the CH1 or do you mean SC into the first st?

    Thanks,
    Kong

      Hi Kong, You are correct. In row 2 SC into the same stitch as your ch 1 does mean SC into the first stitch. Thank you.

    In row three, when it says DC/SC in next stitch, is that in the chain spaces from the previous row?

      Hi Taylor, In row 3 you will be skipping the chains. The row 3 dc’s are placed into the previous row’s single crochets. The row 3 sc’s are placed into the previous row’s double crochets. If you are having trouble, please be sure to end row 2 with 2 sc (one is in the last stitch and one is in the top of the turning chain). Let me know if you have any other questions as I’m happy to help. Happy Hooking!

    I have a question regarding row three. At the beginning I have been putting the two dc in the very first stitch is this correct or do I skip the first one

      Hi Nicole, Row 2 ends with 2 sc and then a ch 3 and turn. Then row 3 begins counting that ch 3 as a dc, so that ch 3 we are to interpret as a dc stitched into the last sc from row 2. Then the 2 dc are placed in the second to last sc from row 2. Please let me know if you have any other questions as I’m happy to help. Happy Hooking!

    What are the dimensions of this scarf? Looks like I may need to make it a bit longer to loop it twice around my neck? Trying to gauge how much yarn I may need. Thanks for sharing this beautiful pattern.

      Hi Eileen, This scarf is 7 inches wide by 40 inches around. I would suggest using 2 whole skeins of Caron Simply Soft to be able to wrap it around twice. I would love to see it when it’s finished! Happy crocheting!

    So I love this pattern and Cron Simply Soft is my favorite. But, I cannot figure out what I’m doing wrong. I’ve restarted my project 4 times now and it’s still curving out really bad. I have only been crocheting for a few years now. What could I be doing wrong?

    I spent several days searching for ‘just the right scarf pattern.’ Your pattern is perfect and I was in love with the look and the simplicity of the pattern after completing only the first three rows. I also found these Q&As helpful. Would love it if you could add either a picture tutorial for this pattern, or even better, a video that covers the foundation chain and the first 3 rows, with special focus on the end of row turns as I’m having some difficulty keeping one side straight/smooth. Thanks so much for sharing.
