Faux Fur Infinity Scarf {made!}


Inspired by all of the cozy looking faux fur winter accessories (but a little put off by their high price tags) and infinity scarves ... I thought it might be fun to combine the two by making a faux fur infinity scarf!  This project is VERY easy (takes less than an hour to complete!) and super inexpensive (especially if you use one of those frequent 50% single item coupons that JoAnn's Fabric or Michael's has ... I scored the faux fur I used for under $4!!!).

What you'll need:
  • 1/2 yard of faux fur fabric (36 - 44" wide)
  • Thread to match
  • Scissors
  • Pins
  • Sewing Machine

    STEP 1:  Fold fabric in half the long way with right sides together.  Pin and stitch ~1/2" in from edge.


    STEP 2:  Fold up one end ~1".  Pin and stitch.  Repeat on other side.



    STEP 3:  Turn right-side-out.  Tuck in one end into the other to form a "circle" with the scarf and stitch closed.



    Viola ... in 3 simple steps you now have a luxurious faux-fur infinity scarf ... perfect for keeping your neck warm and toasty (and your look totally stylish) in the icy cool winter days that lay ahead.

    6. I WISH I knew how to use my sewing machine. I really, really need to cash in my mom's offer to show me how to use it.
