The Infinity Scarf Is Done

Follow

Well I started an infinity scarf in February, but with the move, new job, etc – I just finished it! And just in time for next year – yeah!!! A friend of mine had one and she always looked so cozy that I had to make one.  I could not find a pattern that I liked so I went to my handy and favorite knitting book The Knitters Bible by Claire Crompton.  I love this book it has so many patterns, ideas and helpful how-to’s.
