I decided yesterday that I wanted to make an infinity scarf, then became incredibly confused because I chose a fabric with a wrong side... a little Googling later and this post saved me. I love that you kept the instructions simple and user-beginner-sewer friendly!

Such an easy way to add some style to a simple outfit.<br /><br />I just guesstimated my fabric needs--the fabric was something like 48" or 50" in length on the bolt which seemed plenty long to make a good-sized infinity loop (and it was), so I just folded what looked like a regular scarf width and had the lady at the counter cut it where I pointed, which turned out to be 15". My seam allowance was something like 1/2" (I didn't measure), so it wound up being about 48-ish" in a loop and about 7-ish" wide (since it's folded double). It's not a super wide scarf--I tend to lose control of really big scarves, so I kept it a little smaller (plus it was cheaper that way). I hope that helps!Rachel // Maybe Matildahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17737624506695244343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567751852999123789.post-15640843714213391922012-02-15T15:59:26.761-07:002012-02-15T15:59:26.761-07:00I have never been a scarf person.

That might be the only cute sweater I own ;-) I got it last winter (so a little over a year ago) on sale at JCPenney . . . it's one of those sweaters with the really long, drapey front panels, but I think it looks best with the long drapey parts crossed over and belted. I doubt they still have it now over a year later (especially since it was on clearance when I got it), but I think it's a keeper!Rachel // Maybe Matildahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17737624506695244343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567751852999123789.post-87121388927772778172012-02-15T12:20:31.212-07:002012-02-15T12:20:31.212-07:00Love the scarf but would love to know more about t...Love the scarf but would love to know more about that sweater you are wearing.
