Crochet Plaid Infinity Scarf – Free Crochet Pattern

December 8, 2016 by Bethany 48 Comments

Make this crochet plaid infinity scarf, an absolute staple to your fall wardrobe! Once you get a hang of the plaid technique, you will love making them for all your besties!

Hello friends! I hope you are enjoying Plaid Week! Today’s pattern is a no-brainer. Even before I thought of doing a whole week of plaid, I knew I needed to make a crochet plaid infinity scarf. After a few sizing adjustments, I got a length and width that I absolutely love. This pattern is easy to change if you prefer your scarves longer or thicker. To make it longer, add extra chains to the foundation in multiples of 6, and to make it wider, work extra rounds.

    You are so clever! I made the slouchy cap and though I’ve been crocheting for years, it is the first truly professional looking item I’ve made. Thank you!

    I can’t make use of the video for the plaid stitch tutorial at home. Is there a print version of it I can PDF and send to my Kindle? Thanks.

    Love all the plaid patterns. Thank you! I am starting the cowl today but it doesn’t say if single crochet or double crochet stitches. (?) From the complete scarf picture you posted, it looks like single crochet but thought I would check before moving forward.

        Thank you so much for the free pattern! How the pattern is written right now it does look like it’s worked in single crochet. DC isn’t mentioned in the pattern just in the abbreviation terms. Your youtube video is very helpful.

          Hi megan! The plaid stitch is worked using double crochet stitches.

            I think it would be good to include the plaid stitch instructions. I had no idea what it meant. Just assumed that it meant to alternate colors and I couldn’t figure out if it was a sc or a dc. Had to go to someone else to find out what it was. Now I know.

          • Bethany says

            November 14, 2020 at 9:31 pm

            Yes, this needs to be rewritten. I released this during a week-long plaid week series, the first one (a hat) had detailed instructions, but the subsequent ones did not, which was not a good way to do it. Very sorry for the frustration this caused.

        It’s a #5

            I wouldn’t be able to give you specifics. Just make a chain that is long enough to be comfortable as a infinity scarf, and then work a few extra until your chain is a multiple of 6.

    Is there a written pattern for the plaid stitch somewhere vs having to watch the video?

    Thank you.

    Could the scarfs be done in worsted weight rather than bulk yarn?

    Reply
    • Bethany says

      December 9, 2016 at 10:18 am

      Yes! You would need to adjust the stitch counts it you want it the same length and width.

        Any suggestions on what the stitch counts should be adjusted to if using worsted weight yarn?

        • Bethany says

          October 15, 2018 at 9:22 pm

          Yep! You want your foundation to be in multiples of 6 (or multiples of 6 minus 1 for the “new join” method.

    I’m dying here. =) No time to make them. I definitely will, tho. I just love it. I’m going to make mine just a regular scarf, rather than the infinity. I’m sure it will be just as cute!!!

    For the cowl, do you carry the red and black up as you work, or do you end them and join them again?

      I just drop it at the seam and pick it up when I use it the next row.
