Looking for a last minute gift? This free crochet pattern is a perfect quick crochet project – I finished it in just 2 hours! I used bulky yarn and a US P/11.5 mm hook, but this pattern can be adjusted to any size and yarn type. I think it would look great as a cowl too — even quicker to make! It’s a simple stitch sequence with big textural impact. Enjoy!
This is such a versatile piece too. Wrap it once, twice or three times, or just leave it hanging and you can even cinch it in the middle with a wide belt over slacks and a sweater top. Fantastic!

Winter Hug Infinity Scarf
Round 1: Ch 130 or number of even stitches needed for desired length of scarf, join with sl st to beg ch to form circle; ch1, sc in each st around, join with sl st to beg sc. 130 sts throughout
Round 2: Ch1, *sc, ch1, skip1*, repeat between * to end, join with sl st to beg sc.
Round 3: Sl st into next ch1, *sc, ch1, skip1*, repeat between * to end, join with sl st to beg sc. You are working a sc in each ch1 space and a ch1 over each sc.
Repeat Round 3 until scarf is desired width.
Last Round: Ch1, sc in same st and each sc and ch1 space around, join with sl st to beg sc. Fasten off.
Winter Hug Flat Scarf
If you prefer a traditional scarf (not connected) you may work it as follows:
Row 1: Ch 130 or number of even stitches needed for desired length of scarf; ch1, sc in the 2nd ch from hook and in each st to end. 129 sts throughout
Row 2: Ch1, turn, sc in 1st st, *sc, ch1, skip1*, repeat between * across until there is one ch1 space and one sc remaining, sc in last 2 sts.
Row 3: Ch1, turn, *sc, ch1, skip1*, repeat between * to end, working a sc in the last st.
Repeat Rows 2 & 3 until the scarf is your desired width.
Last Round: Ch1, turn, sc in each sc and ch1 space around. Fasten off.
Remember, you are working a sc in each ch1 space and a ch1 over each sc and the first and last st of each row is a sc. Tip: be sure to check your stitch count in each row so that you end up with a straight edged scarf.
That’s it, I told you it was quick!

How many rows did you do to get the width in the photo? Please and thank you!!
admin says
I don’t recall how many rows it was, I just kept working until I had about 8″ which was the width I wanted.
Alexandra says
What is the name for this stitch? Thanks.

Do you have a video on how to make this round scarf? I am much better at following a video than reading patterns. Just a beginner.
Thanks

I really like this pattern. Do you allow people to sell the products made from your patterns (not the pattern itself)? I belong to a group that raises money to help grandmothers in Africa that are raising grandchildren orphaned by the AIDs epidemic there. I’d like to use your pattern if you are willing to allow this.

admin says
Absolutely! I wish your project great success.
Dawn says
Love this pattern. I did the infinity scarf and it turned out beautiful. Am going to try the flat scarf next. May actually try turning the flat scarf into an infinty scarf by seeing my ends together.

I love it when people take my patterns and play with them! Please share your pictures on my FB page or in the SHOW IT OFF section of my website!
Leah O'Connell says
What would the succession of stitches be if you did it widthwise using about 20 stitches wide with a P hook?
I am doing it for a man’s scarf and get confused now to end and start a row keeping that nice pattern of a basket-weave look. HELP!!! How do I end it with both ends looking sort of similar and finished?
THANKS!!!
Leah O.
admin says
Leah, you could follow the instructions I provided for the flat scarf. The one I wrote out still has the stitching going the long way, but you can modify it to go across. Good luck.
Robyn Johnson says
Thank you, I’m so excited to give this one a try. I’m still a beginner and this looks like a snap!
Judy says
This scarf is just beautiful, and I really want to make it, but I’m not a fan of infinity scarves, so I’d like to make it as a plain scarf, unjoined; To make the pattern work, should I chain 1 at the end of each row? And would the foundation chain need to be an odd number so the chain spaces and sc stitches alternate in each row? Thank you in advance for your help. I thought this would be so pretty in ivory–classy and warm.
Thank you so much for sharing the pattern!
admin says
Thank you Judy, I’m glad you like it! I actually went back and added instructions for the flat scarf to the post too, so you can see it there (at the bottom) but in general, you start with an even chain, sc in the 2nd chain and each ch to start, then in each row just sc in the ch spaces and ch1 over the sc stitches. Remember to start and end each row with a sc so in every other row you will have two sc at the beginning and end of the row. I hope that works for you and I’d love for you to share your finished project on my Facebook page or new Show it Off page! https://pattern-paradise.com/made-pattern-paradise-patterns/

I love the pattern, but there is an ad over part of it. I don’t know what it says underneath it.
admin says
I’m sorry to hear that. Can you tell me what browser you are using.
Angie says
Hi! Love this pattern, I’m just a little confused, hoping you can clear it up. When going into row three and beyond, are you working your stitch into the sc or into the ch1? I got lost in the transition and wasn’t sure how to proceed. Thank you!!
admin says
You will be working into the ch1 in each row.
Vicky McCArthy says
I love this pattern. I didn’t join it to form a circle & I crocheted widthwise instead. This is a perfect stitch pattern for a MAN’S scarf!
Helen says
Love it! Really pretty. Tk u for sharing yr design & talent. The colour u chose really complements the scarf. Tk u again.
suz says
Hi there I really love this n I may be able to try this but wondered if there was a u tube version or similar? I am as new as you can get and don’t understand unless I learn practically! Xx
admin says
