Corner to Corner (C2C) Cotton Infinity Scarf

Hot off the hook!  I am so excited to have just finished my newest project - a cotton infinity scarf just for me!

This one is made out of Yarn Bee Sugarwheel Cotton in the color "Paris Mornings".  I have to admit, I bought it to make a baby blanket but loved the colors so much it quickly became a long, skinny scarf. Soft pinks and subtle grays will go nicely with my wardrobe. Since it is cotton, it won't be heavy and hot - the main reason I don't wear scarves all of the time. California weather rarely dictates the need for a "real" scarf!

I used the C2C double crochet pattern because it is fast and easy. Once you get past the first couple of rows, it is quite repetitive, making it easy to watch the tellie while working away.  I used the basic double crochet C2C pattern with only 2 chains instead of three, giving it a tighter weave. When I have a minute, I will shoot a quick video and link it on my Knots-n-Knits YouTube Channel.

Love, love, love the Yarn Bee Sugarwheel Cotton!  Super soft and lightweight and incredibly easy to work with! Cotton yarn is typically easier to work than acrylic, but this one was a dream - no splitting and very high quality.

I did buy *2* skeins of the Sugarwheel Cotton (remember, I was going to make a baby blanket), so I just might have to make either another scarf for my Knots-n-Knits Handmade Etsy Shop, or maybe a triangle fringed scarf for myself!  Can't wait to head back to Hobby Lobby and pick up some more of this yarn next time it's on sale!
