Sewn Scarf Patterns
If a project includes a printable pattern, you’ll see a “p” next to its title. If a project doesn’t include a
pattern template, don’t despair! It likely consists of simple fabric shapes (like squares and rectangles)
that you can easily measure and cut yourself.

Note that some projects may be designed for a specific type of sewing machine. But don’t let that
discourage you! If a project you like calls for, say, complex embroidery stitches and you have just a
simple zigzag machine, you can try experimenting with a satin stitch, hand-embroidering a design, or
adding purchased embellishments instead.

Sewing Quick Tips:

Here are a couple of tips for working with napped fabrics:

Napped fabrics are usually cut with the nap running down in the finished item. However, try
cutting your napped fabric so that the nap runs up. This may give your finished item a richer
color.

If you’ve accidentally crushed the pile of a napped fabric like velvet, you may be able to
restore it. Try dampening the fabric by spraying it lightly with water then use a small brush
to fluff and raise the nap.

Sewing Quick Tip:

Always press your
pattern pieces
before laying them
onto your fabric.
Using wrinkled
pattern pieces – no
matter how much
you try to smooth
them out by hand
– can lead to
inaccurate fabric
pieces that don’t
match up quite
right and a poor
fitting garment.
Sewing Quick Tip:

Pressing over pins
isn’t usually
recommended. But
if you must press
over pins, use flat-
head or no-head
metal pins. They’re
less likely to leave
a permanent
impression in your
fabric and won’t
melt under the
heat of an iron.
