My Crochet Camel Stitch Infinity Scarf is so beautiful and almost gives a knitted look. Make yourself this crochet infinity scarf to keep warm for the winter.
I love being extra cozy for winter. Something about going out in the nice cold air paired with layers of shawls, jackets and scarves brings a form of comfort. Being shrouded by all the protective layers, it almost becomes a nice warm weighted shield from the harsh elements.
Infinity scarves are just as easy as making regular scarves and you can either make them like a normal scarf and sew the ends together, or you can make them in the round. Like I do here.

✏️ Things To Note:
- I used a wool/acrylic blend yarn for the crochet infinity scarf. Ultimately you can use any yarn you would like for this pattern: acrylic, wool, cotton etc.
- While the camel stitch looks intimidating, it's actually easy to make. If you can make half double crochets you can make a camel stitch, as it is a half double crochet worked in the third loop, also known as the hump.
- The finished crochet infinity scarf is about 5 feet in circumference and 7-8 inches wide. Perfect for wrapping around your head loosely twice!
🪡 Materials Needed
- About 750 yards of any type of yarn you would like to use.
- Size 10mm hook
- Tapestry or darning needle for weaving in the ends.
💭 Abbreviations to Remember (US Terms)
- Chains (ch)
- Half Double Crochet (hdc)
- Single Crochet (sc)
🧋 Variations
To create some fun variety you can switch the rows out with some other fun stitches so you have a variety of textures in the scarf. You can also try switching the colors after every row to create some visual color variety.
🍵 Instructions for Camel Stitch Infinity Scarf
This pattern is made in rounds.
Round 1: Divide your yarn into 2 balls or skeins. Using a double strand, ch x125 and join to the beginning. (125)

Ch x1 and then make a hdc in the following stitch. Continue making hdc for the entire row.(125)

Round 9: Sc in every hump of the last row (125), Fasten off and weave in the ends.
Once that is done you now have a cute crochet infinity scarf ready for the next cold winter day!
🧵 Pattern FAQs
The texture of the stitches would get lost with variegated yarn, but you could use ombre yarn that has a slow fade, or you can use solid colors.
Of course! Just use a smaller hook and adjust the amount of chains in the starting chain.
If you do not want the chain to twist and its difficult to keep it straight, you can do the hdc round as a row and then join the ends together before doing the camel chains. Just remember to sew those 2 pieces together so they are attached better afterwards.
