This fun infinity scarf uses two different stitch patterns to complement the styles of yarn: The gradient yarn showcases a lace pattern that would get lost in the flecked yarn. The flecked yarn works well with a textured pattern, helping to emphasize the knits and purls.

Because she can’t stop f iddling with color when she spins, Jillian Moreno finds that using dyed fiber is “as exciting as getting a new big box of 64 Crayola crayons when I was a kid.” Lately she has enjoyed making projects from the same colorway, but presenting the colors in different ways. This infinity scarf is a step in that direction.
