So one of my favorite fashion bloggers from Pink Peonies posted this picture a few weeks ago of this beautiful scarf. The J crew scarf is just my style, but the price tag of $65 was a little out of my price range. So I decided to make my own scarf for around $3.00!
Directions:
Step 1: Buy: 1 yard of fabric
1 bottle of fabric paint
1 pencil
Step 2: Cut fabric in half as shown below
Step 3: Dip the eraser of your pencil in the paint to create your polka dots, for more directions look HERE
Step 4: Place both pieces of fabric right sides together and sew one end, of your shorter sides.
Step 5: Open fabric so it is now one long piece of fabric
Step 6: Fold the fabric right sides together, hot dog style, and sew
Step 7: Turn inside out
Step 8: Fold the scarf so the seam is in the middle, instead of the edge (seen in the picture of step:10)
Step 9: Fold in about an inch of the fabric on each end
Step 10: Sew the folded down edge
Step 11: Place right sides together, and sew
You should end up with a long tube of fabric. Fold around your neck 2-3 times for a beautiful infinity scarf.
Enjoy!

Thanks Nikki! You are so sweet! This scarf is super easy, and if you don't do the polka dots it just takes a few mins to make.
