Easy Infinity Scarf {Tutorial}


Are you loving infinity scarves right now?! I sure am! I love the look and I love how cozy it makes me feel. Today I have a 5 (maybe 10) minute tutorial for a DIY infinity scarf made from two inexpensive gauze scarves.

I picked up these two black & white chevron scarves at Walmart for $2.48 (on clearance), but I've seen scarves of similar fabrics from Dollar Tree (you can see a fun green Dollar Tree scarf on last year's St. Patty's Day mantel!).

Combining my two normal-sized scarves made one lonnnnnng infinity scarf for $4.96!

DIY Infinity Scarf

Supplies:
Two lightweight, gauze scarves
Sewing machine


Step 1) Grab your two identical scarves! (But, I think this would be super cute with two coordinating scarves as well.)


Step 2) Line up the scarves, end-to-end, and sew a straight stitch down the length. Use the finished seams as a guide to keep your stitch straight. 

Step 3) Line up the remaining two ends and repeat the process, making on long loop. 


Step 4) Wear and enjoy!



You can wear your infinity scarf wrapped twice, three times or four times! Don't you love options?!



So, what do you think? Doable? If this totally novice sewer (seamstress?) can do it, so can you!

Okay, okay...If you totally hate to sew, but really want to recreate this look, you could simply tie the ends together and hide the knots in the loops. But, trust me, it's a much smoother look with the ends nice and tidy :)

  15. Is it possible they are just getting in to nest What do you recommend Linn Black And Yellow Jordan 1 CountyA: Flickers do excavate for insects for a large part of their diets but it Purple And White Jordans far more likely that they only excavating your building Yeezy Boost 350 Cheap to create nesting cavities. Unfortunately, because there are few big(ger) trees with cavity building opportunities, flickers have adapted all too well to creating their own cavities in buildings. Because Yeezy Boost 350 Cheap of their federal protection as migratory birds, once there are eggs in the nest, we obligated to wait until the young birds can leave before we go in and clean out the nest and block that particular entrance.Your first step is to find the nests and see if there are Black And White Jordans eggs present.

    Lawrie McMenemyMcMenemy was the manager who guided the Saints to their solitary FA Cup victory and later to promotion to Yeezy Boost 350 Black the top division. Widely regarded as Southampton's all time greatest manager, and indeed one of the best managers the country has ever produced, McMenemy delighted in positively cramming his side full of footballing stars. During the early 1980s he created a little piece of history by fielding a Southampton side containing six past, present or future Yeezys For Sale England captains.

    As strange as this new land was to me, I was just as exotic to Nebraskans. When I'd tell them I moved from Minnesota, I'd consistently get one of two responses: They'd smile and say they could tell by my accent. Or they'd look confused and say I didn't sound like a Minnesotan.

    Kooy started in those first two defeats back in September . Kooy has gradually improved in a trying fourth OHL season. Jordan 1 Black And White He was 0 2 1 1 in five appearances with the Knights and an uncharacteristic 4.65 goals against average and .842 save percentage.

  16. OVER 64: England 231 7 (Ballance 79 Broad 15) Ballance smashes a MK Outlet four from the first ball of Coach Bags On Sale Online Eranga's Michael Kors Bags Sale over and maybe he has got the nod from the balcony after all. Get your runs sharpish lad. Broad obliges with a straight drive and the charge is now in fullish cry.

    Menery asked Discount Jordan Shoes Wholesale about Bouchard previous relationships, whether Air Jordan 1 Sale she ever truly loved Ray Ban Sunglass Hut a romantic partner and what her plans are for having a family (she wants three to five kids).
