I totally dig a good infinity scarf, I especially love a chunky one. I have a few of my own, and I inspected their construction. They seemed simple enough, I figured I’d give making one a try. It turned out pretty well, so I decided I would share how I did it. Here’s all you’ll need:
- About 2 yards of fabric, preferably light weight(1-3oz.). Something double-knit or jersey would work well.
- Thread in a similar color to the chosen fabric.
- Scissors.
- Sewing Pins.
- Sewing Machine.
The fabric I chose is a gray, light-weight jersey material with little white scalloped stripes throughout.
I used a gray thread that I had on hand that just so happened to match my fabric perfectly. Huzzah!
To start, I laid the 2 yards of fabric out on my desktop…
Then, I just folded the whole piece of fabric in half, longways(like a hot dog). I folded it so the scalloped side of the fabric was facing inward. So, in other terms the fabric was now inside out.
I, then, pinned the open edges together, making it one long tube of fabric…
From there, I just sewed the pinned edges together…
I love when fabric has stripes, then I can use the stripes as a guide for sewing the fabric straight.
Once I had the whole edge sewn together, I cut away any excess fabric outside of my stitch. This step isn’t necessary I just didn’t want a bulky seem.
From there, I stitched right over the same stitch one more time, just so I had a nice strong seam.
Then, I turned the fabric inside out, making the scalloped side facing outward. From there, I folded the fabric in half again. I folded from right to left, this time like a hamburger (I like food).
Now, the tricky part. I had four layers of fabric at this point. The right side of my pile were all open edges. I grabbed the two center layers and pinned them together…
I pinned the good side(scalloped side) to good side(scalloped side), this will end up being the inside of the infinity scarf. I pinned the entire edge which came right back around to where I started pinning. Hope that makes sense. I, then, sewed this edge, leaving only a small opening…
See the scalloped side hanging out in there? Well, I just started pulling the fabric out of this hole until I had the whole scarf turned inside out. I was almost done at this point, just needed to sew that hole up. So, I just turned the edges of the hole inward and pinned the seam together…
I sewed that seam up, and I had this…
And there you have it! A new homemade infinity scarf…
This was actually a gift for my sister, and she didn’t even believe I made it at first. See Jess? I did make it! Hope you enjoy it!
We spent our Christmas holiday with Justin’s family. We had a great time as always!
We played our usual card game, Phase Ten, a couple times. Justin won every time (he is no longer allowed to play).
Justin’s mom got, both, him and his dad the same golf polo and shorts. So, of course, I needed a photo of them being twins (they will both hate me for posting this, but it is necessary). 
I mean, is this even real? They are so the same person!
Hope you all have an awesome dog to spoil too! Merry Christmas!
I got to spend time with some of my friends as well.
