Tutorial: Infinity travel scarf that’s also a lightweight blanket

This 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.
