$5 scarf turned ruffle neck warmer

when i started blogging back in june, i came across the idea of a ruffle scarf @ happy together. since it was june...i opted to wait until we got some colder weather to give it a try.  oh, and i didn't have a sewing machine yet!! lol  so here is what i ended up with:  

i found a $5 scarf @ wlamart                      




i used the fringe as a guide, and lightly penciled on some lines to follow
then i loaded up the machine with coordinating thread, and hand wound the bobbin with elastic thread.


ta daa!  i just fastened it with a pretty pin!

  5. Do you suppose a gathering stitch would work? Or is the elastic thread a must?
