1.Ombre Crochet Infinity Scarf Pattern
My free crochet pattern uses front post, back post and treble crochet stitches to create a fabulous texture.

Perfect for layering up between seasons.

13. Granny Square Infinity Scarf Free Crochet Pattern
This pattern uses the classic granny square but I’m thinking you could substitute any type of granny square to achieve the same effect.

You’ll need to make 12 granny squares of 4 rounds each and then join together to make the loop.
Easy!
- Skill Level: Beginner
- Recommended Yarn: Lion Brand Scarfie Yarn
- Measurements: Length (before joining): 74” X Width: 6”
