material girl

Today is a weekend day that I have without my hubby.  I decided to venture to the material store to innocently get a small section of cloth for a kitchen curtain project.  Due to my willpower (?) I purchased 4 items that had to come home with me.  Once I am done with my imagined house projects, patches of these materials may make it to a bag or two. 

But, I wanted to share a project that is literally one of the easiest ways to make a scarf.  Find a jersey knit that is super soft and in a color that you adore.  Then order about 1.5 yards.  Done. 

Of course you could trim or get fancy with making different shapes (longer rectangle or a square).  Jersey knit does not need to be trimmed and it is definitely “in” to have rough edges to clothing items.  The scarf I “made” is of a rust color which is slowly becoming my new off-color (move over mustard).
