I've had this idea for a while, and I'm glad it actually works! Enjoy!
Step one, buy 3/4 of a yard of fabric you really like:
Step two, make tassels
For this you will need:
- yarn
- scissors
- a piece of cardboard
- yarn needle
Cut a small piece of yarn and rest it on the cardboard horizontally
then wrap yarn vertically seven times
Cut
Tie the small string at the top in a knot
Slide it off (make sure your knot is tight) and wrap a different piece of string (that should be about 12inches long) around your strings approximately 1.5 centimeters down from your knot (wrap it around 4-5 times)
Use the yarn needle to secure your string and hide it with the result of the tassel strings
Cut the ends of the tassel evenly
This is what your tassels should look like.
You're gonna need to make about 15-20 of these
Let's go back to our fabric, fold it in half with the ugly side out, and the pretty side in.
Next step, we're gonna go to the sewing machine and evenly sew in our tassels onto the scarf.
NOTE: because this is inside out, MAKE SURE you put the tassels on the inside and sew as close to the knot as possible. Space your tassels about 2.5 inches apart.
NOTE: they don't need to be along the whole length of the scarf.
This is what it will look like, cute little tufts sticking out of the seam
Turn it inside out and it'll look like this!!
Now, the final step is sewing the ends together, tuck one end into the other end, fold in the edges and sew them together
Tada!! Tassel scarf!
Love love love,
Morgan.
