by

infinity-scarf-tutorialThis infinity scarf is one of Melissa’s (from Polka Dot Chair) go to travel items.  At first glance, this looks just like a simple infinity scarf, but this has an extra feature.  It unsnaps to make a travel blanket.  You can wrap it around your shoulders for an extra layer on a cold flight or car ride.  How smart is that!!  She shares a tutorial at Tatertots and Jello showing how to make one.  It’s easy to make out of knit fabric and snap tape.
