How to Make a Fringed Fleece Scarf

Step-by-Step Guide

   Step 1: Buy 3 types of fleece at the craft store or online.

   If the fleece is 60" wide, you will only need 1⁄3 yard (0.3 m) of each color, as long as the store clerk cuts straight, since each piece will be the exact cut of your scarf.
   
   You should choose fleece that has a similar thickness and pile.
   
   Each of the colors will show when the fringe is complete, so make sure they are complimentary colors.
