DIY Homemade Infinity Scarf

I want to learn to sew and I’ve started with a megasimple project.  I made two infinity scarves to give away as Christmas gifts.  I showed the fabric here.  Three cuts and one straight line of stitching and it was done. I started with a super soft fabric made from bamboo.

1. Cut fabric into a rectangle that is approximately 26 inches X 77 inches.

2. Pin the ends together.

3. Sew the ends together.  I like to leave the pins in and sew over them to help keep the fabric in place as I sew.  The particular fabric tends to curl on the ends.

This is my sister, Morgan, she showed me multiple ways to wear scarfs and we documented them all for another post.

  1. Very nice. I was shopping last week and almost bought one similiar only it was angora and very soft and plush like. You can get really creative with the different fabrics and textures. I might have to try this one! Thanks! - Abby Harrow

  2. When we get back I'm going to get my very own sewing machine. Since you say this is 'megasimple' - I think I will make this my first project. I'll let you know how it turns out. :)
