Easy Knit Infinity Scarf Pattern: Mid-December

Yes, I'm crazy about infinity scarves and cowls still and couldn't resist passing this on..... so Merry Christmas!  Here is a free knit infinity scarf pattern that will make you want to grab two skeins of super bulky yarn and size 19 knitting needles as fast as you can.  The stitch was somewhat inspired by a double-breasted knit jacket in Easy Baby Knits by Claire Montgomerie.  I wanted to use a different looking stitch that wasn't difficult and had a fun stitch on the reverse side.... I'm calling the scarf Mid-December.   


While I've been busy knitting gifts for friends and family, I got the itch to come up with another fast and easy infinity scarf pattern.   I had to post this Friday night so you could use your time wisely this weekend (it being the last weekend left before Christmas and all).  So get your knitting on and make one for your friend in an afternoon this weekend.
