Short scarves

Last week I thought I came up with the best idea ever. I am not a fan of long scarves. They are bulky and they end up bunching up under my coat. They make my chest look bigger than it really is.  Maybe I just don't know how to tie them. Who knows?

I sewed a couple of short scarves and used a button to fasten them. I was so proud! I couldn't wait for Ames to come home so he could see how clever I was. He came home and I told him all about it. He said he liked them but then he started looking online. Apparently I wasn't the first to come up the short scarf. Oh well! I still like them and everyone is getting one for Christmas darnit! I made one for Laney and one for me.

This is where I started. A flower. Doesn't look like a flower.


There it is. I gave up on the pink.


Here is Delaney's scarf. She picked out the material.


Here is my scarf under construction. Inside out.


Flipped out.


Both of our short scarves together.


I love this material.

Laney really didn't want me to taker her picture! What a grouch!
