Since Infinity Scarves are very popular thought I would share how I made one.
This was made last winter from Merino. I used resist (bell shape) for the hat and then shaped it over a bowl and a styrofoam head.
The scarf was also made using a resist by covering both sides of a rectangular resist about an inch or so from the long edge and overlapping the roving on the short ends of the resist. Remember when determining the size of your resist that the finished scarf will be double the length of the resist. You probably want the scarf to wrap around your neck twice. Do not make it too wide - I ended up cutting mine in half lengthwise to make a finished width of 3". When folded in half it measures about 31" by 3".
