Description

I absolutely love scarves...and ruffles! So why not put them together! I'd seen one of these scarves in the store recently (w/o the fringe), but didn't buy it. I decided to make my own!

Instructions

1

Cut the t-shirt following Steps 1-3 in the picture.You should have two long pieces.
2

Line the two pieces together evenly and sew the edge at one end. You should have one very long piece.
3

Set your sewing machine at the highest tension in a straight stitch. The elastic thread should be in the bobbin and all purpose thread is on top. Start sewing about 3-5 inches from the top, depending on how long you want the fringe to be. Stop sewing about 3-5 inches from the bottom. You will shirr two lines on the right and left sides.
4

When you finish shirring, line up both ends.
5

Cut the ends into strips.
6

On one side, pull the strips down to create the fringe. Don't pull too hard!:)Take the strips, two at a time, and tie into a knot. Repeat on the opposite side.

Here's the finished product!
