Cheap Easy & Quick Scarf

It is freezing cold here today in Northern Saskatchewan and with the wind a howling makes it even worse.  Around -42 with the wind chill!! Brrrrr!!  Great day to stay inside.  I made banana bread today, the same banana bread that I have made for the last 20 years or more.  But today I made some substitutions, greek yogurt instead of sour cream and apple sauce instead of oil.  Turned out beautifully delicious :)  AND, I mixed it in my handy dandy new KitchenAid Mixmaster that I got for Christmas.  How have I lived all my life without a Mixmaster?  It made it so much easier.

But also made a super cute, easy & cheap scarf today.

I love wearing scarves, so easy to accessorize a sweater or t-shirt.  For this baby, I got a used t-shirt at the thrift store.  I just want a plain black scarf.  The t-shirt I bought for $0.99 had some logo stuff on it but it didn't matter.  Cut the t-shirt across horizontally anywhere below the arm pits so you end up with a squareish/regtanularish shape in a continuous loop.  The more of the t-shirt you leave on, the more of the solid part of the scarf you will have.  Now just cut the t-shirt into strips from the hem of the shirt up - as long as you want your fringe to be.  I cut through both sides at the same time.  Once its all cut, you just pull each piece of fringe down, it will curl onto itself. And your done!!  Was thinking you could even put some beads onto the fringe part if you really wanted to. 

So there it is, cheap (99 cents), easy, (no sewing required), and quick (about 10 minutes).
