Multicolor Infinity Scarf

This holiday season at work I decided to make my Secret Santa recipient a hand knit scarf. I wasnt certain of what color they would like so I made it multicolor. 

Supplies

Needles Etc

You will also need knitting needles, I used size 15, as well as scissors and a needle. Oh and basic knitting skills!

Cast On

Cast on 20 stitches and begin to knit.  I chose a bulky yarn and a thinner yarn and knit with both strands. I only use the basic knit stitch. I love the look of row after row of just knitting. 

Knit

knit for about ten rows and then change either the thin strand or the bulky and replace 
it with another color.

Near the End

When I get near the end I feed back in the colors I began with that way when I sew the seam the colors match. 

Finish Knitting

Knit till you have reached about 4 feet. 

4 Feet

I like to use 4 feet because it gives the scarf a bulky loose look. If you want it a bit snug stop knitting sooner. 

Bind Off

Bind off the needles by knitting two stitched
s together and then returning to the first needle.

Sew Seam

On the last stitch pull the yarn through the stitch with enough length to sew the seam. Thread the needle and stitch up the infinity scarf.
