Scribble Scarf

I used to braid rugs. I found a lot of beautiful wool and wool blend fabric that I couldn't bring myself to use in a rug. Many of these fabrics were unusual plaids. This project allowed me to combine my appreciation for these rare wool plaids with the overwhelming urge to scribble on them.

You can use any scarf shaped scrap of fabric that is the same on both sides.

You can use any yarn.

One of my scarves is listed in my etsy shop. Scribble Scarf

Step 1 Choosing your materials.

This is totally up to you. In this case I'm using a solid wool fabric so I wanted to use a bright, contrasting thread in my old, dilapidated sewing machine.

Another consideration is using yarn that's already in an impossible state of entanglement. It's satisfying to find a use for it besides tying up tomato plants.

The pics in steps 2/3, 4, & 5 don't seem to correlate. I'm confused how they relate...

Thanks for your interest. The only construction steps are really 2 & 3. 4 & 5 just show you two different designs you can do. They are different from the one in the demonstration. You just sew the yarn on the fabric in any design you want. I should have just shown the completed scarf I started with, but I wanted to show some of the possibilities for design. I will see if I can upload that picture, but it may take awhile. I've been unable to upload pictures to this site today even from firefox. Maybe you can check back in a few days, and I'll try to insert that step.

Ah, ok. And yeah, I've had a lot of problems w/the site today too... :(

I finally was able to fix this entry. If you have time, check it out. Thanks for your input.

I think it's much clearer now. :)

I thought this was going to be a scarf for my doodle, - for deception.
