Make an Awesome, Huge, Black Infinity Scarf for $10 in 10 minutes!
I love scarves and I am almost always wearing black. So I was inspired to make a big, black infinity scarf from a photo I found on Pinterest. Unfortunately, I can’t find the original source.
They have done some fancy stitching on this scarf. That is a bit advanced for us. We are just going to make a really wide and long scarf for a similar effect.

I want to give credit to the right folks if I include their photo….so correct me if I’m wrong. It appears to have come from a European website called…. www.stilechtonline.de, from a clothing line called Rundholz Black Label. Possibly from the Winter of 2014. I don’t understand it but I think the website language is German. They make very original styles of clothing and a lot of BLACK.
This inspired me to make a big black infinity scarf for myself. It turns out infinity scarves are super easy and take very little sewing.
You will need:
- black jersey stretch fabric (60×70 inches or 152x178cm)
- sewing machine
- pins
Fabric
Find jersey stretch fabric 60 inches wide (150cm) and have measured 70 inches (180 cm). I found my thin jersey fabric on a clearance shelf at my fabric store for $5 per meter. So this project cost around $10. It’s usually recommended to prewash the fabric.
Open the fabric up. Fold the side of the fabric that is 70 inches long in half.
Pin the ends together and sew down the seam. This is all the sewing that you need to do. If you don’t have a sewing machine you could hand sew it with a needle and black thread.
Fold the fabric in half again, sliding the top portion inside to make a tube. I chose not to sew up the bottom the way a lot of infinity scarves are. This makes it so you can adjust the shape of the scarf. I like to pull it over my shoulders a bit.
So for the cost of 2 yards or less than 2 meters of fabric you have an awesome, huge infinity scarf.
