Tutorial - Voile Scarf

Down here in Texas, we have no need for thick knitted scarves, as gorgeous as they are, because winter lasts all of about 5 days... but we still like to be stylish! So, I recently ordered my first batch of Spoonflower fabric on the sheer-ish cotton voile, specifically for this purpose and am very pleased. I immediately set to work sewing up this sweet little scarf, taking photos along the way so I could share it. http://www.beckandlundy.com/2011/09/tutorial-voile-scarf.html
