Supplies:

- Knit sweater. I used a Large Mens sweater, purchased at Goodwill.
- Sewing pins
- Thread
- Needle or sewing machine
- Scissors
- Measuring tape, if needed

1) Lay the sweater flat. You'll be cutting out the entire "body" of the sweater, which will essentially be your entire scarf.

2) Cut down both sides of the sweater. I was able to use the sweater's natural lines as a guide.

After cutting.

2) Cut straight across the top.

3) Trim if necessary. My entire sweater rectangle was about 20 inches wide, but I cut off about 4 inches of it. Trimming totally depends on preference and the size of your sweater, of course!

4) Flip the sweater pieces so that the right sides are facing each other. Pin down the sides about an inch away from the edge.

Pin both sides.

5) Sew both sides right up.

6) Roll the top raw edge in, and pin all around.

7) Sew across to finish off the top edge.

You should end up with - surprise - a tube of sweater material. Hanging up, the top portion looks wider than the bottom but that's because it's stretchy. Simply slip your head through it and you have a warm and cozy scarf :)

Finished scarf!
