Ruffled Infinity Scarf Tutorial

Be sure to check out my free patterns and tutorials page here.) I estimate that 94.9% of the tops in my wardrobe are V neck. I really like the way a deep V looks on me and the style is not really a problem until winter time. I keep our heat turned really low and to help stay warm I usually wear scarves to cover my exposed neckline. (IMO if you are complaining about being cold, go put on a sweatshirt/sweatpants instead of sitting there in a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. If you are a frequent reader of this blog, then it will come as no surprise when I say I love ruffles and jewel tones (especially shades of pink, teal and coral.) I especially love pre-ruffled fabric and have used it in several projects. This ruffled infinity scarf is very simple and quick to sew and the scarf makes a big impact.

Step 3: Sew the scarf together. Sprite Bangles! I've got a fun project today that uses strips from 2 liter bottles to make super awesome bangle bracelets.

Sprite Bangles!

I used the 3/4" strips that were left over from when I made my Recycled Yarn Holders. You could just cut strips from a 2 liter bottle, if you didn't need another yarn holder (Who am I kidding?! Everyone needs another yarn holder!). Sprite Bangles Supplies needed: 3/4" strips cut from a Sprite (or any other) 2 liter bottle - cut around the bottle, not top to bottom.Small amount of size 3 crochet thread (I used Aunt Lydia's Fashion Crochet Cotton) Size D hook Yarn needle Scissors Use your scissors to make sure that your strip of plastic has smooth edges.

Sprite Bangle Cover (make 2) ch 7 R1: sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in each ch sp across (6 st) R2-60: ch 1, sc in each sc across (6 st) Fasten off. Place one cover around the outside of the plastic strip. What I really like about these bracelets is that they're a great project for using up scraps from other yarn projects. Xoxo.
