I'm playing guest host once a month for the *Sewing Machines Plus Takeover Tuesday show! The topic for my recent LIVE show was titled Sew AND serge sensational scarves for any season.
MY goal was to share some ideas and inspiration to help you learn techniques for finishing scarves on the sewing machine and serger, then show you how easy it is to make this beautiful triangle scarf to keep or give as a gift! Well, time ran out before I could share serger style scarves so I plan to follow up with that theme on the next show, scheduled for January 21st.
In this post I'll share a few extra resources and give you a link to instructions for the featured Chic Triangle Scarf.
I encourage you to watch the replay of this hour long show on the SMP YouTube channel to hear all the tips presented and see me sew the Chic Triangle Scarf from start to finish!

But first, PASHMINA MANIA!
I started the show with some images of scarves from my book titled Wrapped in Embroidery. Pashminas featured in the book are the real "McCoy" silk and or wool pashminas from thepashminastore.com. They're luxurious but a bit pricey. Take a look at embroidered and embellished Pashmina scarves from the book below:
These three were created using silk/wool pashminas. However, since the book was released I've made more scarves using a nice, economical alternative purchased from, you guessed it . . . Amazon.
The navy and silver pashmina below was crafted using the pashmina purchased for $17.99! You can check out the variety of color options available for purchase HERE.

You can see how this scarf was made when you watch my video previously seen on the PBS It's Sew Easy TV show 1703-1 HERE, with instructions HERE.
And now, the Triangle Scarf!
I've got a full set of written instructions in PDF form for you to download so you can make your own chic triangle scarf. I suggest you download a copy and use it along with the video for reference. CLICK HERE to download.
I hope you'll enjoy making one for yourself or one to give as a gift. As always, I'd love to hear your thougths and read your comments!
