An Easy-Level Knitting Pattern
This is an easy pattern for those of you who are advanced beginner level, and the techniques you will need to know are knit, purl, k2tog, and knitting in the round.
Using mainly knit and purl stitches, you will also use simple decreases to shape the top of the hat.

The Yarn I Used…
I made the hat using 1 skein of Sirdar Big Softie in grey.
I made the skein into two balls and knit 2 strands together for the hat.
For the scarf – 3 skeins of super bulky yarn (in grey – I used Hayfield Super Chunky With Wool in the shade 0051).
I used 3 strands knit together for the infinity scarf.

Notes
The hat and scarf knit up quickly and the simple design makes for a relaxing and enjoyable knit.
Both of these items exude coziness and texture, in super bulky yarn.
They are knit in grey, a neutral color but can be made in colorways of your choosing.
Both patterns are pretty advanced beginner-friendly.
