DIY. Fringe Scarf Sewn Loose Top

Supplies: scarf



I love the simplicity of this top with the added fringe. This previously was scraps left over from this project, just enough for a summer blouse. Scarves are the best fabric, I look for them to make dresses, tops, even cardigans...

Here is how I did it:


I used my favorite fit tank to use as the pattern. I made sure to add a lot of width since I needed to finish the edges and the scarf wasn't a stretch fabric. 


I wanted the front to be shorter, so I  made the sides really wide...just cut really far out. 
Sew right sides together. You may want to add a zipper on the side seam if it is hard to get on...
Finish seams by folding over and top stitching.


I used a white scarf because that's what I had, but think of the gorgeous patterns and colors you can find!

    I'm doing similar project on "scarves gone tops" with my two girls age 8 and 10yo. We wont be using sewing machine or zipper. Instead we'll use the sewing tape. Any advice on that? Btw, so so glad I found your blog, I'm inspired!

    Thanks for this DIY! I think it would be nicer if you dyed it with another colour :)

I discovered it just yesterday and can't stop thinking about it. I will start right away with this project. Thanks for sharing your ideas. Great job :)
