Various Shells Infinity Scarf - Crochet

Stay up to date with everything on Book Worm & More by Subscribing to our Email.



I'm not sure how many of you crochet but it has become my new obsession again.  My grandmother taught me a long time ago, when I was in elementary school.  


Through the years, I've gone through cycles of crocheting where I do it non-stop and then don't do it again for years.  Well, I started crocheting again when I got real sick a couple of months ago and couldn't do anything else.  You know when I pretty much disappeared the last few months.  I even ended up in the hospital but that is another story.

So, anyway, I designed this infinity scarf.  It is pretty easy and uses 3 different shell stitches.  I hope you like it.  Please let me know if you have any problems with the directions.  This is my first time writing a pattern.  I'd love to see your scarves, too.  Here we go.
