. . . for Lauren and Lauren: Fall Repeats

October 23, 2012

Fall Repeats

This outfit consists of my favorite recent fall loves: 
colored denim, wedges, leather jacket and a scarf. 


I made this scarf last year and am excited to wear it often this Fall and Winter.
This isn't like one of those projects I've made in the past that claim to be 30 minutes, but really take me over two hours.
This project is honestly an under 30 minute deal.
So easy that I'm reposting the directions from an earlier post. 


Buy a piece of jersey/knit fabric.You need a fabric that is nice and stretchy.  (I bought two yards.)
Lay your fabric out on your floor and fold it in half so that shorter ends match up.
The outside of your fabric should be facing in. (although with some knit fabric is doesn't make a difference)



Pin it in place. (This is important since knit fabric is very stretchy.)
Sew the ends together.
Flip it inside out (or outside in technically?)

That is it!

I've also made one in yellow and I'm sure I'll make another one soon. I'm on the lookout for a floral print!


Happy Wednesday!

I tried to find fabric for a scarf this weekend and couldn't find any jersey/knit that wasn't solid. :( I'll have to try again.

Love the colored denim. I just bought some purple jeans last week. I wasn't brave enough to buy bright ones like that, though. Yours look great!

Unknown said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

I have wedges very similar to those but they hurt my feet too much when I wear them with anything other than tights. I need to work them into an outfit soon!
