It provides a _ dramatic flair and can provide Ro newness to an old out- it Ascarf can be any shape (triangle, rectangle, square, even oval or circle) and any size (small enough to tuck into . a breast pocket or large enough to wrap you up). .. Wear it as a belt, or instead - of a necklace. Wrap it around _- your head, or around your skirt. Wear it as a halter top. Tie it, fold it, drape. it,-pin-it, ‘twist it. Nothing is as versatile as a scarf. Always fashionable, a scarf is the perfect wardrobe enhancer, a dramatic wardrobe _ extender and imaginative ward- robe expander. A scarf can- dramatize, dignify, enliven, subdue, captivate... it can add inspiration to a plain outfit, add class to a tailored business suit, provide the perfect . finishing touch... If you are stuck with an out- fit that clashes with your natural coloring, try dressing ‘up the neckline with a scarf in colors that flatter your com- plexion. A scarf’s possibilities are limited only by your imagina- tion. Transform an ordinary oblong scarf into a fashion sen- sation: fold the scarf lengthwise and repeat until you have a long narrow band of fabric. Pin the end of the scarf to the end of a strand of pearls or to ' chains of gold, silver, or a combination of these. Spiral these around the folded scarf _to the end of the strand or chains. Wrap the scarf around _ your neck once or twice, de- “> pending’ on the length of your ~” gearf and jewellery and the - “ook you wish to achieve. Remove the pins holding the "Jewellery to the scarf and » “fasten the strands or chains in - the usual way: Knot your scarf ends and coticeal them by. tuck- ‘Ing them under the'scarf. in eye-catching: gcarf begins — with a beautiful fabric, A scarf i easy to maké; wo shy not ur own. fashion, accent? _ without saying that stiff : fabrics 2 are: e inapproprl ate choices. What you still want is lightweight fabrics with | drape-ability, A silk-scarf is - always popular. It is the easiest to tie, drapes nicely, and its. lustrous sheen has a special ap- ° peal, Other good fabric choices « are wool or rayon challis,. fine * taffetas, even’ lightweight knits... . . What shape should you ~ choose?. That, ‘depends on. you, and your wardrobe. A rec- tangle, or oblong scarf i is,aM eX- | cellent accent item, The bias. . oblong, with its tapered ends, is a complementary accessory for suits, dresses, blouses and sweaters. It will take you where your imagination leads. The square is the most popular, however, It has the most ‘“‘ty- ing’’ possibilities. The medium- to-large size square scarf is the . most versatile. In a heavier © weight it is the ideal accessory * for coats and suits. Lighter fabrics make attractive fillers for open blouses, suit jackets, or blazers or sweater jackets. A scarf cut on the bias will -- have-better draping qualities. A straight-of-grain cut scarf will tie a crisp bow, and also take less fabric to-make. ‘ To make.a straight-of-grain “square scarf, the amount of . fabric needed will depend on the size you wish to ‘make and on the width of the fabric ichosen. Whatever-size you - “choose to make your scarf, allow one-half inch on all edges” of finishing. Here are. some purchase guidelines: if the fabric width is 90cm., pur- chase 1.05m.;-for 1 15cm. | “fabric, you will need 1.30m.;:- 140cm. widths require 1.50m.’ 150cm. require 1.60m. : ‘Prepare your fabric: (this first step is very important). - Straighten the width ends of woven fabric (lengthwise, selvage edges-are already ‘straight) by cutting into the selvage at each width edge. of your fabric, Pull a crosswise thread until it puckers. Cut along the puckered line at each width end. Your fabric is now straight and ready for hem- ming, Machine stitch one-quarter inch from raw edges. A trick to prevent the corner from becom- ing jammed in the needle hole when you begin stitching is to start part way down one side. Hold the threads in back of your machine when sewing the first few-stitches. Stitch exactly on the grain of.the fabric. This is necessary for your scarf to drape well. Pivot carefully at the corners, — Trim the fabric close to your stitching. Turn one-eighth inch, pin, press lightly.. ” To finish your scarf, ‘slip stitch by hand, Or machine - stitch, turning yout fabric © - again n by. a generous is one-cigith. inch’ Use small stitches, but . ~titeh the corner edges by hand. ot ptoduces:a ‘neater, finish. | “Instead of hemming, an at-_ “tractive finish for large.scarves: T “and shawls is a fabulous fringe. . You can purchase a tasseled - edging to finish your scarf Or - do it yourself, This finish; - however, is recommended for firmly woven fabrics:’. _ This is how to-create your “own fringed: scarf; : depending “on how deep ‘you: warit your: - fringe, pull a: ‘thread: along all «four: sides of your: scarf, each” “at the same depth, Machine ; _ “stitch with small stitches along the line created by the pulled _ thread. The stitching secures the fringe, preventing further unravelling. Next, cut up to the stitch line (be careful not to cut - through it) approximately every Sem., all the way around your” scarf. (These cuts are perpen- dicular to the fabric edge or _ stitch line). Now, just pull’. . ~ away threads'in each Sem. feo ae - tion up to the stitch’ line’. Use a.’ ball-point pen, > Your scarf is ready to wrap you up for fall. A sensational look is a shawl with a matching skirt.
