Who doesn't love a chunky, scrunchy scarf in the winter? I designed this infinity scarf to tuck perfectly around your neck by scrunching in all of the right places. With a big hook and thick yarn, you'll be toasty in no time.
There are two sizes: size small is about 4 inches wide and size large is about 6 inches wide. Both sizes are about 42 inches in circumference, but the scarf is very stretchy.
You'll need:
- Bulky weight yarn: 109 yards for size small, about 160 yards for size large
- I used Loops and Threads Charisma yarn in colorway Holiday. If you choose size small, this scarf can be made with only on skein of Charisma. Just be sure not to make your beginning tail too long so you have enough yarn for the scarf.
- A size N (9.00 mm) crochet hook
- A yarn needle for weaving in your ends
Gauge:
11 stitches and 8 rows = 4 inches in pattern
Gauge is not essential to this pattern since you can make the beginning chain however long you want to adjust the size. But if you want to follow the pattern exactly, gauge is necessary to ensure the scarf is the proper size.
Stitch abbreviations:

Stitch abbreviations:
- ch - chain
- st - stitch
- sl st - slip stitch
- hdc - half-double crochet
- hdcblo - half-double crochet in the back loop only
- hdcflo - half-double crochet in the front loop only
Pattern:
Ch 115 and sl st into the first ch to form a big loop (be careful not to twist the chain). You can chain more or less depending on how big of a scarf you want.
Round 1: Ch 2, hdc in each ch around, sl st in the top of the ch 2.
Round 2: Ch 2, hdcblo in each st around, sl st in the top of the ch 2.
Round 3: Ch 2, hdcflo in each st around, sl st in the top of the ch 2.
Repeat Rounds 2 and 3 until you have 8 rounds for size small or until you have 11 rounds for size large.
Finishing:
Weave in ends. Block if desired, but blocking is not necessary.
