But anywho...Hooded Scarf. Brilliant idea.
My blog buddy Emily from The Boy Trifecta has this super tutorial on how to make one here. I needed one. (Fingers crossed Josh doesn't lose it at school today!)
{Monster flannel -- perfect for a boy}
I had some flannel but I wanted it super warm. But I didn't have any fleece. I thought about cutting up a blanket. But then I thought nooo....Joshua's bathrobe (that's to small anyway and yet he wants to keep it --- double score!). This sucker is WARM. I wear it - husband laughs at me. But it's perfect.
{Plush bathrobe all cut up - I love the piping that are on each end of the scarf}
{And the piping lines the hood}
This is probably the most brilliant thing I've made -- you need one!
With the hood (and esp. with some fluffy fabric in there) wind can't blow inside. And it's soooo warm and comfy.
{front view -- all bundled up -- please ignore the backpack straps it drives me crazy that he doesn't put it on all the way!!!}
{side view -- you see how it covers the whole neck - no gaps -- and it covers the cheeks!}
{Again it covers the whole back of the neck and tucks in perfectly with a coat. Love it!}
This was a super easy (and quick!) project to make -- go check out Emily's site and make one for EVERYONE you know.
I saw one a little bit like this the other day in a shop...I nearly bought it because it looked so glamorous (yes, glamorous - you're just going to have to bbelieve me!!) but I think I might have a go at making one.
