Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky weight yarn, approximately 200 yards
• Needles: US Size 15 (10mm) circular needles, 24 inches long
• Gauge: 8 stitches and 12 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch
• Stitch Marker: To mark the beginning of the round
• Scissors: For cutting yarn
• Tapestry Needle: For weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 100 stitches onto your circular needles. Make sure to use a long-tail cast-on method for a stretchy edge.
2. Join in the Round: Carefully join the stitches in the round, ensuring that they are not twisted. This is crucial for the integrity of the infinity scarf.
3. Place Marker: Place a stitch marker on your needle to indicate the beginning of the round. This will help you keep track of your rounds as you knit.
4. Rounds 1-4: Work in a ribbing pattern by knitting 2 stitches, then purling 2 stitches. Repeat this sequence around the entire round until you complete 4 rounds.
5. Round 5: Change your pattern slightly by knitting 4 stitches, then purling 4 stitches. Repeat this sequence around the entire round.
6. Round 6: Now, switch it up again by purling 4 stitches, then knitting 4 stitches. Repeat this sequence around the entire round.
7. Repeat Rounds 5 and 6: Continue alternating between Round 5 and Round 6 until your scarf measures approximately 12 inches from the cast-on edge. This will create the beautiful wave-like texture.
8. Rounds 7-10: Return to the ribbing pattern by knitting 2 stitches and purling 2 stitches for 4 more rounds.
9. Bind Off: Once you reach the desired length, bind off your stitches loosely in pattern to maintain the elasticity of the edge.
10. Weave in Ends: Use a tapestry needle to weave in all loose ends, ensuring a clean finish for your scarf.

Your Ethereal Waves Chunky Infinity Scarf is now complete! Wrap it around your neck for a cozy, stylish look that embodies the essence of the ocean.
