If you are looking for a quick project that uses just a skein of yarn (or less), then this scarf pattern is for you!

With a size K (6.5mm) hook and worsted weight yarn, you can make a simple but elegant infinity scarf. Instructions are included for making this pattern with a bulky or lightweight yarn as well.

Use a self striping yarn for maximum color effect without extra effort. This would also look really good as a colorblock scarf, using up bits of scrap in your stash.
