Product Description
Maple is a cosy infinity scarf that's easy to wear - infinity scarves are a favourite of mine as they don't get in the way and they stay put.
Maple was created to fill my desire for a chunky, relaxing project to knit. Maple features broken moss stitch all over, providing texture and interest whilst knitting but also being simple enough to create that you can chat at the same time. For newer knitters, this is an excellent introduction to the texture you can easily create just by knitting and purling.
Note on Technique: Maple is knitted in-the-round, however, the first 3 rows are worked flat to reduce anxiety over twisted stitches. With a large stitch count stitches twist very easily, with this method it’s not a problem and you can enjoy your knitting!
Maple Infinity Scarf by Say! Little Hen
What is Being Made
Maple is a cosy infinity scarf designed by Sarah Price of Say! Little Hen. An infinity scarf is a continuous loop of fabric that can be worn draped around the neck without requiring fastening, making it a practical and comfortable accessory that stays securely in place throughout the day. This pattern is ideal for knitters seeking a relaxing project that produces a wearable garment suitable for multiple colorway variations.
Craft and Project Type
This is a knitting pattern for a cowl-style accessory. The Maple infinity scarf is designed as a beginner-friendly project, making it an excellent choice for newer knitters who want to develop their skills while creating a finished piece they can wear immediately. The pattern encourages crafters to knit Maple in multiple colours to build a versatile wardrobe of scarves that coordinate with different outfits.
Stitches and Techniques
Maple features broken moss stitch worked throughout the entire design. Broken moss stitch is a simple yet textured stitch pattern that alternates knit and purl stitches to create visual interest and a pleasing fabric texture. This stitch is beginner-appropriate, as it requires only basic knitting knowledge of knit (K) and purl (P) stitches while still producing an engaging and attractive finished fabric. The broken moss stitch pattern provides enough visual complexity to keep knitters engaged without overwhelming beginners.
Materials and Specifications
The pattern calls for the following materials and tools:
- Needles: 6mm circular needle measuring 100–120cm in length, or the size needed to obtain the specified gauge
- Yarn: Option A uses KPC Novomerino in DK weight yarn
- Additional tools: A wool or darning needle for weaving in ends and finishing
- Yarn weight options: The pattern accommodates both chunky and DK weight yarns, allowing knitters flexibility in yarn selection and resulting fabric weight
Pattern Details
The Maple infinity scarf is worked on circular needles in the round, which is the standard construction method for cowl and infinity scarf patterns. The use of a longer circular needle (100–120cm) allows the knitter to accommodate the full circumference of the scarf while working. The pattern includes a complete abbreviations and stitch guide to support knitters throughout the project, with clear notation for standard knitting abbreviations including stitch (st/sts), beginning (Beg), knit (K), purl (P), and pattern (Patt).
