Instructions

You can find the very easy and quick instructions on how to make a neck gaiter/warmer one on my blog Dia's Days.

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Functional

For: Unisex

Style: Outdoorsy, Cute


Materials

polar fleece, ribbon, thread

What was your inspiration?

My kids. They needed to keep their faces warm for a cold day of skiing!

What are you most proud of?

That I could use fabric from my stash. Also that I could make a quick and functional project without running to the store to buy!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Don't press fleece with a hot iron, it will melt!!!
Finger pressing is sufficient for this project.
Fleece does not fray so there's no real need for finishing the seams.

So cute and simple. I'm filing this idea under: "I wish I'd thought of that."

Love these. I think my cousins could use a pair. They live in England and go skiing all the time.

The ribbon makes them more exciting AND, more importantly, it's good for owner identity. The kids will know exactly which one is their own!
