*Please refer to the notes section below to see how you can make a nearly identical scarf by knitting it with the more common method, from end to end.
(You might remember that I used this mesh pattern in my Summer Vacation Knit Top Pattern) This chunky knit infinity scarf is made by knitting widthwise (bottom-up), rather than lengthwise. The Traveler Infinicowl Scarf uses a beautiful and mesh stitch pattern that creates a feminine, cozy texture when done with the chunky yarn. Can someone inject my brain with camera knowledge please? 😉 Ha ha! For some reason camera technology doesn’t click for me. Since my daughter has been known to take some of my photos, I guess she needs to learn a few things too. It was a challenge, not only because it was FREEZING cold outside, but we realized that we have a lot to learn. I recently decided to purchase a new camera lens and the hubs and I used it for the first time to photograph this scarf a few weeks ago. You know that I love nature and want to do justice for not only the yarn projects that I share, but also the natural beauty of the outdoors. AND it would be super cool to take some great shots of my baby girl as she grows and changes. One of my goals this year was to improve my photos and I must say that I can see some improvement since the year began, however I have a long way to go. There’s a bit more work and time involved with this project, but I think it’s well worth it! It’s made on US Size 11 needles rather than the biggies which I typically use, so it’s slower going. If you’re up for just a bit more of a challenge, I think that you will be really happy with how this stitch works up! You have to keep track of your rows to an extent, and it’s fairly large.
While the stitch pattern is simple, the project itself is not as quick and simple as those that I often post. It’s pretty big to pack in your carry-on for the airplane, but if you will be walking through the cold, this will be a welcome accessory. Maybe it could be classified as a snood for that reason? It’s called the “Traveler Scarf” because I think the versatility of wearing it up, down or all around makes it a cozy choice to wear while your travelling by foot. I love how this scarf is wide enough to lift over your head when the wind starts to kick up. Small yarns are so elegant, but sometimes a chunky yarn really makes the stitches pop as is the case here. Isn’t the color just beautiful? I love this soft taupe that goes with just about anything. I love the stitch and thought it would be awesome for the blanket sweater, but it turned into this “Traveler Infinicowl” knit scarf instead. This big, luscious scarf was created as part of the design process of the “Easy Knit Blanket Sweater” pattern.
