Infinity Scarf

I love scarfs, but to be honest, I don't have very many of them. I tend to never buy anything for myself when it comes to clothes...honest! Ask my Mom or sisters. They don't come to me asking to borrow clothes. When I found this material on clearance I decided it's about time I sew something for myself, and being able to make this for $2.50 was even more exciting!  Scarfs can really make a whole outfit come together, and the

best part is that it doesn't have to be winter for them to be fashionable---unless of course you are wearing a knitted one in the middle of the summer :)

Materials:

1/2 yard of Fabric

Hot Iron

Sewing Machine

**Depending on what kind of fabric you use, you might also need:

Wax paper

Starch

My fabric was a sheer somewhat silky material which slid all over the place.

If you are battling a slippery piece of fabric, just lay some wax paper on your ironing board (to keep it clean) and spray some starch on your fabric.  Iron your fabric till it's dry. You should notice a difference in the stiffness. If you don't, you might not have sprayed enough starch.

Fold your 1/2 yard piece of fabric in half lengthwise and pin edges together.

This will also help your fabric from sliding around.

Place your fabric at the edge of your presser foot and sew down the length of your material.

When finished you should have a long tube.

Because of the nature of this material, it will shift slightly while you are sewing.

You can see how my edges aren't exactly equal once I sewed the pieces together.

That's okay, just go to your table and use either your rotary cutter or a pair of scissors and make it even...no harm done!

Straightened edge

Turn your tube right side out.

Once you turn your tube right side out you will be turning it again.
Check out my tutorial (HERE) for the last step by step instructions. 
I did include some pictures below of the next steps but if you follow this tutorial it will help.

Be sure to you match up your seams.

Sew around the top edge. Leave about a 2 inch opening to pull your scarf through.

Pinch your opening closed and sew.

Enjoy your new scarf and happy crafting!
