Last year’s Tour de Fleece and Spinzilla events left we with a healthy stash of handspun yarn; I was particularly enamored with a Falkland 2-ply I’d made with hand-dyed roving from Hearthside Fibers and Pumpkinhaus.

I wanted to make a simple, snuggly scarf and thought it would also be nice to have the option of draping it around my neck several times like a cowl. I decided to add buttonholes before binding off, allowing me to convert it into an infinity scarf if I was so inclined.

The result is a versatile accessory that is my absolute new favorite. I’m sure there are plenty of garter scarf patterns out here, so I don’t claim to have created something brand-new here. However, I thought I’d share the details for anyone who is interested in making something similar, whether it’s using handspun or commercially available yarn.
