You will love being able to use up all of the little balls of chunky yarn to crochet this scarf.

This cowl uses a unique stitch. It’s a wrapped cluster stitch. Here is a Youtube tutorial on how to crochet it. I love using this stitch and I used this stitch on the Leafy Lace Wrap. There is also a left handed version of this cluster stitch on YouTube.

Crocheting this large cowl infinity scarf is so quick.

Using a large crochet hook and bulky or chunky yarn means your project will fly off your hook. Crocheting these as a gift for your loved one will be easy.

If you don’t have scraps of bulky or chunky yarn, then it is easy to buy a few balls of coordinating colors. Cut the yarn and roll into smaller balls, and you can create the same scrappy look. I hate to say scrappy, because it really looks elegant, not scrappy.

Special Stitch

popcorn/cluster = 3 dc in/under ch5 sp, two dc stitches wrapped around the post of all three dc stitches. The first one is a little tricky. I grab it between my thumb, ring finger and pinky to hold it up so that I can wrap my hook around the posts, to complete dc2x. VIDEO TUTORIAL
 

This Infinity scarf pattern, will help you use up those extra ends and pieces of chunky yarn that you have laying around. It is so much easier to take a few minutes, and join all of the scraps together with a weavers knot.

There is a wonderful picture at the link below. http://jimescalante.net/teach/2008/01/30/weavers-knot-a-frequent-request/ 

You can also google weavers knot, and there are some great video tutorials that will help you along. This knot will create a binding knot, but I like to leave a couple of tails that I can weave in for security.  

You can also use a square knot, instead of a weavers knot, and leave significant tails. Grab them while you are crocheting, and work them alongside your main strand, for a stitch or two, still leaving a long enough tail, to secure with a knot when your scarf is complete. Description follows, and will follow the completion of the scarf.

How to weave in yarn tails on the chunky scarf.

Once the scarf is complete weave a yarn end to a cluster, and split the yarn, and shove back the two dc that are crossed around the three standing dc,  and tie a knot where the two dc’s were, clip your strands, and cover the knot back up with the two dc.

Once the scarf is complete you will need to weave in all of the yarn ends. Thread a yarn tail into the eye of a yarn needle, then weave the yarn end to a popcorn. Split the yarn, and shove back the two dc that are crossed around the three standing dc.  Then tie a knot where the two dc’s were, clip your strands, and cover the knot back up with the two dc.
