  Step 1

  Start with two strands of bulky yarn.

• 

  Step 2

  Make a slip knot. If you are not sure how there are some good how-to videos on YouTube.

  Make sure you make a long tail. I measure from my wrist to my elbow and double that.

• 

  Step 3

  Wrap the working yarn around your pointer finger and tail around your thumb.

  You will now start making your first row.

• 

  Step 4

  take your hand that has the slip knot tied around and go under the tail piece.

• 

  Step 5

  Then grab the working yarn and lightly pull it up.

• 

  Step 6

  It should look like a loop.

• 

  Step 7

  Put your slipknot hand through the loop and tighten.

• 

  Step 8

  Repeat 3-7

• 

  Step 9

  Make about 7-9 stitches.

• 

  Step 10

  Now you will make your next row on your other wrist.

  Hold onto the working yarn and pull off the closest loop.

• 

  Step 11

  Pull the working yarn through and make a loop.

• 

  Step 12

  Put your hand (without stitches) Through the loop.

• 

  Step 13

  Repeat 10-12 This will start the rows on your other arm.

• 

  Step 14

  Keep repeating. I did about 28 rows.

• 

  Step 15

  This is what it should look like with 2 rows.

• 

  Step 16

  To end it, you basically are going to make double stitches.

  Instead of making a single stitch, you will grab the stitch behind the first and drop it off.

  This is probably the hardest part. I highly recommend pulling up this video:

  Step 17

  After all the stiches are closed you will have a loop left. Pull your working yarn through and tie it off. At this point you want to connect the ends. I just lace the loose ends together and tie them off.

• 

  Step 18

  Pull all the stitches so they look even and viola! An infinity scarf!
