Free Crochet Pattern: Charming Chained Infinity Scarf

Shown in Red Heart Hygge Charm Yarn: Meteor & Star Blue

Hello & thanks for stopping by!
This pattern is great for beginners because it is super simple and only uses 3 basic stitches: Chains, Triple Crochets & Slip Stitches. I have made quite a few of these as gifts (& for myself) and they are always well received, it also pairs great with the Favorite Slouchy hat pattern.
