This is the scarf pattern from the book Making Children's Clothes. I love this book! I had my eye on it for a while and happened across it for a great deal too good to pass it. It is full of all kinds of great projects I look forward to sewing.
Circles cut from coordinating fabric scraps dress the outer layer.
I loved working with these fabrics and this pattern is one I will most definitely sew again. A scarf that stays on a busy little boy or toddler is a great cool weather solution too! Looking forward to more fall and winter sewing ahead!
