This stranded colourwork infinity scarf was inspired by old-fashioned woven gingham. Knit in the round, and then grafted to form a loop, the scarf showcases a simple gridded check that is most often used as a background or filler to more complex colourwork designs, but which I think looks lovely on its own.

Ronnie Hazelhurst - meister of 1970s British light entertainment - gave his name to this design. I found designing and knitting this scarf strangely like a Hazelhurst tune - I just couldn’t get it out of my head.
