Co 10 sts. Divide sts in two needles (5 sts each) and join in the round.

Now the second sleeve:

Snaky infinity scarf

Super easy infinity scarf for monster high dolls




Yarn used: Alegría, Manos del Uruguay
Double pointed needles: 2mm/ US 0
Gauge: not so important

i-cord - cast on the number of stitches desired. Knit one row, do NOT turn. Slide stitches to the other end of the needle. Knit next row (keep the yarn behind). Repeat.
kfb - knit front and back (one stitch more)
k2tog - knit 2 stitches together (one stitch less)
sts - stitches


To make the scarf look more real, change the number of sts while knitting the i-cord. I used 3,4,5,4,3 sts.

Cast on 3 stitches. Work i-cord about 2".
Kfb, continue working i-cord (4 sts) about 1".
Kfb, continue working i-cord (5 sts) about 3".
K2tog, continue working i-cord (4 sts) about 8"
Continue knitting i-cord and change the number of sts from time to time.

Wrap the scarf around your doll's neck to see how long scarf you wish to make. My scarf in the pictures is 20".
When you have the desired length, cast off and weave in all ends.
