Pdf pattern for an infinity scarf, mobius loop, in single crochet.

Want to try your hand at making an infinity scarf? This one was designed with summer in mind. Medium weight cotton yarn is called for such as Handicrafter by Bernat. It is not as wide as most winter scarves, only 4.5 inches, 11 cm. It is still nice and long so your can wrap it around twice to get that cowl look. The finished circumference is 64 in., 163 cm. It is an infinity loop so it has a built-in twist. The twist gives the scarf better draping qualities. Since it is a circle, there are no ends to worry about tying.

There is more than one way to make an infinity loop. Some patterns just make a rectangle then twist and sew the ends together. This pattern is made in the round, without seams. The first row is actually in the center and you work outwards from there. The top part of the scarf has front facing stitches while the bottom has back facing stitches. Don’t ask me to explain it. But I will explain how to make one, including photos to illustrate the method.

This scarf is made all in single crochet (except the foundation chain and final slip stitch). I really like the texture, kind of like seed or moss stitch in knitting. You can see in the photos how there is kind of a dividing line down the center of the scarf, with the texture a little different on each side.

If you’ve been wanting to try an infinity scarf, here is a good starter pattern. It is much easier than knitting since you don’t have to do that tricky cast on. With crochet, you are only dealing with one stitch at a time.
You will need 3 balls of the solid color Handicrafter Cotton or 4 balls of the stripes, twists or ombres. The scarf in the photos was crocheted in Sage Green.
