Inspiration
About a year ago, I bought 2 cakes of Caron Latte Cake to make Fuzzy Raglan by Knits ‘N Knots. I finally had a time to make this cozy raglan this year, and I had decent amount of yarn left. After weighing how much I have left, I knew it was enough to make something like a small container, a scarf, a simple hat, etc. Nothing too detailed because that can eat up my yarn. Recently, I’ve been designing just the home goods so I thought it was time to design new wearable goods. So I sketched out the look I wanted to have, made a quick gauge swatch, calculated how wide I wanted to make, and bam. Fuzzy Infinity Scarf was born.
FPDC and BPDC working diagonally
Caron Latte Cake is a fuzzy yarn, and that itself brings detail to the finished project. However, I wanted a little more than that. Thinking of what details would look good on a scarf, FPDC (front post double crochet) and BPDC (back post double crochet) came in to mind. I made Avery Cable Slouch Beanie back in 2017, and I loved the look of FPDC and BPDC going in diagonal direction. Then I thought, well making a cable design is a bit too much of a detail plus eats a loooot of yarn, so how about just few diagonal lines per row and throughout the pattern. It took few trials and errors to get the look I wanted, and it was exciting to see my imagination coming to life!
Great friend, great supporter
I drove down to Indiana to meet up with my friends last weekend, and I had an amazing time! My friends are really supportive about my work, and I’m really grateful to have a friends like them in my life. One of my friend you see in the these photos helped me with the photoshoot as a model, and it turned out amazing! Usually my sister helps me with taking the photos (and me as a model), and I wish I had more creative sense like my sister (check out this post to see the amazing photos my sister took!) Well, the photos I took are not that bad either right? Swipe left/right to see the photos I took! (and look at that beautiful smile my friend has!)
First time asking for testers
To be honest, I knew this pattern was going to be difficult to write up. I knew how the finished piece was going to look like, so of course I was fine with following along the written pattern I wrote. However, that’s not going to be the same for other crocheter…I’m glad I asked for testers (for the first time!) because they refined my pattern and (I hope) it’s much clearer to follow the pattern! Swipe left/right to see the finished projects made by my testers!
During the testing, both of my testers had difficult time with Row 4. I even had hard time figuring out what’s the best way to word it. So the best way for me was the stitch chart! It’ll help you with where each stitch needs to be, and it’ll be much easier to follow the pattern. The stitch chart is included only in the ad-free PDF pattern, and you can purchase them from the buttons below!
MATERIALS:
- Caron Latte Cake [1 cake = 530yd/485m, 8.8oz/250g, category 5 bulky weight]
- 1 cake of any color (photos shown: “Grey Shock” discontinued color)
- 7mm crochet hook
- Tapestry needle
- Stitch marker (optional)
PATTERN NOTES:
- Size – about 47″ (119cm) long/circumference, 4.25” (11cm) wide
- Gauge – 13 DC x 7 rows = 4″ x 4”
- Number in [ ] indicates the number of stitches in each row.
- CH 2 at the beginning of Row 1, Row 4 and Row 5 DOES NOT count as a stitch.
- You can click HERE for FxDC tutorial
- Instead of FxDC, you can do CH 3 which is a typical way for making a turning chain for DC. Please work with whichever is more comfortable.
- ”DC #” means to make a DC into the next indicated number of stitches.
- Example: if pattern calls out for “DC 4”, make 1 DC in next 4 stitches
- I recommend you put a stitch marker at the beginning and end of each row so you don’t miscount the stitches.
- Diagonal lines are made in a set of 4 stitches. If you like to make a wider scarf, please increase the number of foundation chains by multiple of 4. Remember that the number of repeats will increase if you’re making it wider.
- The edges will be diagonal if your FPDC and BPDC are not tall enough to match the height of DC. If you want straight edges, make sure your stitches have the same height.

- CH – chain stitch
- DC – double crochet
- FxDC – faux double crochet
- FPDC – front post double crochet

SEAMING (TWIST OPTION):
You can choose to twist the scarf before seaming so that when you put it on your neck, you’ll have a cleaner look.
Step 1 – Lay the scarf flat on the surface, diagonal lines facing away from you.
Step 2 – Fold in one end. Fold out the other end.
Step 3 – Align both ends and seam together.
To wear a scarf: Put your hand into one side. Fold in half.
Hold only the side that diagonal lines are now facing you, flip over the flat side towards back.
Diagonal lines are all facing out and ready to wear!
