Crocheted Hooded Infinity Scarf








You can wear this with the scarf hanging down or cross the scarf over and put it up and over the hood as in the photos. It's hard to tell from the pictures because of the sunlight coming in the windows, but the hood has 3 rows of bobbles and then several rows of ribbing at the front.
