Ribbed Crochet Toddler Infinity Scarf
Welcome to my first blog post, and thank you for visiting! One of my very favorite pieces to crochet is the infinity scarf. It is usually a very quick and easy pattern, and there are so many stitches to play around with! For this toddler scarf, I worked both half-double crochet and double crochet stitches, using the back post only. It worked up in just a couple of hours, and will be the perfect addition to any little one's wardrobe. I used a gorgeous teal yarn that I ordered from Yarn Warhouse online, by the company Berroco-Ultra Alpaca. It's 50% alpaca and 50% Peruvian wool, so it's extra soft and great for little necks! This scarf is perfect as a gift for a baby shower, or make it for your own little one!
