What You Will Need: -Old T-Shirt -Good Scissors Step 1: Go through your old T-shirts and find a daring print or color combo.

Step 3: Working your way around the tube, make a series of vertical cuts that extend from the raw edge upward. Step 4: Tug down on each strand to elongate it. photo credit: Cathy Hayes for Lakeland Local Catch and Release Scarf So here is my tutorial for the Catch and Release Scarf from Anthro. Better late than never right? Materials: - 1 piece of fabric about 90 inches long- elastic thread- matching thread (all purpose)- rit dye (optional)- tailors chalk- sewing needle * Your fabric needs to be light weight, breezy, and somewhat see thru. I think a cotton voile, cotton lawn, or cotton gauze would work really well. 1 - Cut your fabric so that you have one long piece that is about 90" x 17" 2 - To finish the two long edges fold in 1/4", press, fold another 1/4", and press again. 3 - Leave the top thread of your machine with your normal all purpose thread. 4 - Using your tailors chalk, mark 3 vertical lines down the middle of your fabric - each 4 inches apart. 5 - With all purpose thread as your top thread, and elastic thread as your bottom thread, stitch all three vertical lines from top to bottom allowing it to gather as it goes. 9 - If you want a different color as I did, use RIT dye to dye your scarf.
Jersey Scarf Repurposed T-shirt Necklace/Scarf Well we are three days into September and I am working hard to put my stash to work. Today I'm going to show you how to make a simple scarf/necklush from an old T-shirt. Now I know that there are more beautiful jersey scarves out there, but I was amazed at how simple this was. It is such a quick project and can certainly be dressed up. The rest of my stash pile of old t-shirts might very well become jersey necklaces. I think that this is my first step in preparing for fall. Want to make one for yourself? The first thing that you need to do is select an old t-shirt that you are willing to donate to the cause. The shirt that I chose was a failed bleaching experiment. Once you have your shirt you will want to lay it out flat and cut it apart just below the arm holes. Next you will cut the bottom section into strips. Next I cut the sleeves and the neckline off of the remaining piece of fabric. You can wear your scarf anyway you want it.

Summery Cute Flower Scarf If you haven't noticed the scarf trend, you're living under a rock! They're everywhere! You can never have too many scarves, right? I wanted another springy one, so I found this really pretty linen floral fabric and measured out enough for a scarf. I like mine to be about 70" x 8" so they hang to just the right spot. To get the size I need for the scarf, I sewed 2 pieces together. To keep the edges from unraveling, I used a running stitch along the long edges of the fabric. Here's my stitches. Then I cut some pretty white lace for the edges and sewed them to the scarf. Now here's the fun part! Then I twisted it and let it dry overnight. Once it's dry, give it a shake and knot it around your neck! Linking up to:
