Chevron Infinity Scarf in HDC - Pattern and Tutorial

Want to make a
Chevron Infinity Scarf?


Here's how:

Gather supplies:
(I added some light blue and cream after I took the yarn photo.)

Here's the pattern:

ch 49

Row 1: hdc in 3rd ch from hook, skip next ch, hdc in next 10 chs, 3 hdc in next ch, hdc in next 10 chs, skip 1 ch, hdc in next 10 chs, 3 hdc in next ch, hdc in next 10 chs, skip 1 ch, hdc in last ch. ch 1, turn
Row 2: and rest of rows:  hdc in 2nd st from hook, skip next st, hdc in next 10 sts, 3 hdc in next st, hdc in next 10 sts, skip 2 sts, hdc in next 10 sts, 3 hdc in next st, hdc in next 10 sts, skip 1 st, hdc in last st, ch 1, turn

and here is the pattern in photos:
ch 49


ROW 1: 


 hdc in 3rd ch from hook
(the photo shows 2nd ch from hook in error)


 skip 1 ch and hdc in next 10 chs




 3 hdc in next ch


 hdc in next 10 chs


skip 1 ch and hdc in next 11 ch 




 3 hdc in in next ch


 10 hdc in next 10 chs, skip 1 ch, 1 hdc in last ch,


 ch 1 then turn



ROW 2:


 hdc in next ch




skip 1 st and hdc in next 10 sts 


 3 hdc in next st

10 hdc in next 10 st


 skip 2 st


 10 hdc in next 10 st


3 hdc in next st 


skip 1 st 


1 hdc in last st, ch 1 turn



repeat row 2 until desired length.




 Looks likes this after second row,


and this after four rows



Here's a color change 


At the end of the row, before the last hdc is complete,

slip new color through all three loops on hook. 






 ch 1, turn



Here's a review of row 2 with the new color: 






 hdc in first st




skip 1 st and 10 hdc 


3 hdc in 1 st 

then 3 10 hdc, skip 2 sts etc. as above

Keep on crocheting until desired length.
(You can use your neck to measure.)
I like the ones that can wrap around twice, best.
Then slip stitch the two ends together.
(I apologize, I forgot to take this photo with the pink scarf.)
It also helps if you end with the color you began with for a more hidden seam.

You can also twist the scarf before joining for a more rippled effect.

Have fun and keep warm in a crocheted scarf!
