Tutorial: Scarf to Top

As I mentioned in my previous post, these are the directions to transform a scarf into the top.



I had took pictures of the construction, but the shiny sheen of the scarf made it very hard to photograph. So, I decided to draw out the instructions. I tried to make the directions as concise as possible. I hope it is not too concise!

Please be sure to check the length of 'A'. You want it to be longer than 1/2 of your bust measurement, at the very least. On my scarf (44"x44" scarf), I got quite a bit of ease.
Also, I did not really measure my elastic. I just fit the elastic to the right tightness above my bust line.

I am now eying what few scarves I have and telling them that one of them will be reborn soon. Haha.
