Crochet Infinity Scarf

I've been on a big crocheting kick lately, and am especially loving cowls and infinity scarves. While searching out interesting patterns on Pinterest, I stumbled on the Pavement Infinity Scarf from Fiber Flux. This pattern is perfect for the Bernat Softee Chunky yarn I just bought, and the my new set of big hooks. Since the pattern is based on double crochets, working it with a chunky yarn and a large hook works up really quick! 


Day 3: Something soft 
This cowl is so soft and full of texture. I used an N hook and 2 skeins of the Softee Chunky yarn in Grey Ragg. It is a great length for wearing long or wrapped around your neck twice. Cozy!

This project also happened to work out for my Photography Challenge prompt for Day 3. I know I should have been on Day 2 (something delicious), but that's the great thing about a mini challenge -- just do what works! So I will find my Day 2 photo today instead.


I took this photo when I was stopping for gas yesterday. The light was great, and I just bunched up the cowl in front of my car door too get the dark background. I took it with my Cannon T31 and a 50mm 1.8 fixed lens. The camera was on aperture priority at 1.8 to get the great blur in the foreground and background, and this is SOTC (straight out of the camera).


I would love to see your challenge photos as you take the, so please share a link in the comments.


Happy crafting!
