This is a downloadable PDF file with instructions for making this infinity scarf, not the scarf itself. The hat pattern photographed is the “Riptide” pattern, and it is not included within this pattern. Purchase the e-book containing both patterns for $7.00, instead of $5 each.

Recommended Experience Level: Advanced Beginner/Intermediate Knitter

This listing is for one 12-page Digital PDF File download in both written and charted formats with photographs, and a beading photo tutorial containing instructions on how to knit this elegant beaded cabled infinity scarf.

Beading is of course optional. There are details about sizing, and how to adjust it according to your personal preferences. This pattern was test knitted successfully. I’m excited to report that this project was completed with ease when it was tested, and this project looked fabulous completed. Please Note: The beads on the body of this scarf are peek-a-boo in style, as they often do not all show at the same time during wear due to the nature of the cable construction. A solid color yarn or slightly variegated color yarn is recommended so the cable design stands out to its full potential.

What You Need:
3 - 100g skeins (231 yards each) “Riptide DK” by Twisted Turtlez (Etsy). Fiber Content: 65/20/15 SW Merino/Silk/Yak
or any other DK weight yarn (231 yards minimum per skein) to achieve correct gauge.

Cable Needle or Size 7 (4.50 mm) DPN for cables
Tapestry Needle
2 - 17g tubes Size 6/0 Czech Glass Seed Beads (Miyuki or Toho brand work also) Beading is of course optional.
1 - Bead Stranding Needle (i.e. Venus Needles by Bead Buddy - collapsible)
Clip on Stitch Markers (33 if clipping between cable section repeats; a round marker for sure!)
Scissors
Crochet Hook (For grabbing/fixing dropped stitches)

Skills Needed:
Basic knitting in the round
Basic cable construction is helpful, but not necessary.
