How to Gift Wrap a Scarf

Scarves are versatile and subtle way to change an entire outfit. Although these classic accessories make great gifts throughout the year, wrapping a pashmina scarf can prove challenging because of their soft material. Your gift presentation should reflect your thoughtfulness as much as the gift inside does. Using a gift box and layered tissue paper gives your gift a crisp and polished appearance without wrinkling the delicate scarf inside.

How  to Wrap it:

1. Open your gift box and lay the center point of the tissue paper inside the bottom. The tissue paper should flow evenly over both longer edges of the box.

2. Fold your pashmina scarf lengthwise twice until it can easily fit inside the gift box. Place the scarf inside the box over the tissue paper. Pull each side of the tissue paper over the scarf to create a double flap. Place a two-inch piece of tape over the top tissue paper flap. The tissue paper will help protect the scarf from wrinkling. Cover the gift box with the lid.

3. Lay your two feet of wrapping paper on the table and place your covered gift box lid-side down in the center. This ensures that the seam where the wrapping paper meets appears on the bottom of the box. Pull one side of the wrapping paper lengthwise over the box and secure it with a two-inch strip of tape. Repeat the same process with the other side of wrapping pashmina scarves paper. Fold the remaining ends of the wrapping paper into triangles and secure them on top of the box with a two-inch strip of tape.

4. Adhere the pashmina scarves gift tag or card to the top of the box indicating both your name and the name of the recipient.

How to Hang a Sheer Scarf Swag

Swag for scarves refers to a decorative form of window treatment that offers little to no privacy and protection from the sun. Swag is a purely ornamental type of fabric that can instantly transform a room by adding a splash of color and a graceful draping of scarf. Because swag is so easy to use and has such a flexible design, it can consist of any type of fabric on scarves. Heavier fabric, like velvet, will give the swag a more regal effect, whereas lighter, more sheer material will give the swag an airier, more romantic appearance. Hanging a swag pashmina scarf is refreshingly simple and attractive.

Instructions Twist

1. Stand on a step stool directly in front of the window, holding the swag in one hand. Throw one end of the swag over one end of the curtain rod.

2. Wrap the other end of the swag around the remaining length of the curtain rod, twisting it so that the swag creates a spiral shape.

3.  Adjust how loose or tight you want the coils of the spiral to be. Adjust the dangling ends of the swag: They can be the same length for a more classic look or different lengths for a more contemporary look.

Smile Shape

4. Climb on your step stool and throw one end of the swag over one end of the curtain rod. Throw the other end of the swag over the opposite end of the curtain rod. This will create a deep “smile” shape hanging from the curtain rod with two vertical pieces of sheer scarf hanging on either side.

5. Pull on the two pieces of hanging swag to make the center “smile” shape less deep. You determine how pronounced or subtle you want the draped center piece to look. Adjust the vertical hanging pieces so that they are either the same length or different lengths.

6. Center the swag or adjust it so that it is deliberately off-center. A centered “smile” shape is more traditional; an off-center one looks best with vertical hanging pieces of swag that are different lengths.

Scarves with swags will make them looks very gorgeous, for ladies you can wear them for almost all the occasions you participated in. Now the fall season is coming soon, choose a designer swag pashmina scarves for your own.

How to Crochet a Fuzzy Fun Fur Scarf

Fun Fur is a style of yarn developed by Lion Brand. A number of companies now make an identical yarn, often called eyelash or boa yarn, and knitters and crocheters often use the term “fun fur” to refer to all yarns of this style. Soft, synthetic Fun Fur pashmina scarves are intended for those with wool sensitivity. Working with Fun Fur can be a challenge because of the difficulty seeing the stitches through the strands of “fur,” so this is a project for intermediate crocheters.

Instruction of Crocheting the Scarf
1. Tie a slip knot to begin your scarf, leaving a 3-inch tail. Insert your hook into the slip knot as you do at the beginning of all crochet projects.

2. Chain nine stitches for a thin scarf, 11 stitches for a medium-width scarf and 16 stitches for a wide scarf. The last stitch in the row will be your turning chain.

3. Insert the tip of your crochet hook through the second chain from the hook in whatever way you prefer. Work one single crochet.

4. Work one single crochet in each stitch in the base chain until you come to the end.

5. Chain one and turn your work.

6. Crochet each successive row the same way you crocheted the first. Make one single crochet in each single crochet of the previous row, chain one at the end and turn your work. Continue until the scarf is as long as you want it to be.

7. Cut the yarn when you have worked the last stitch of the last row, leaving a 3-inch tail.

8. Pull the tail through the last stitch using your crochet hook. Tug the tail to tighten the knot you just made. This is the same manner of binding off you use in all crochet projects.

9. Weave the tails along the nearest edge of the scarf using your crochet hook or your fingers. Pull through to the front, then to the back and then to the front, going down one row each time until all of the tail is hidden.

Here are some tips for you when you are crocheting the scarf. Gauge is not crucial for Fun Fur scarves. The numbers for base chains are just a suggestion. Chaining more or fewer stitches will not affect the pattern, just the width. When working into the base chain, you may choose to insert the hook under both legs of the “V” that is the top of the stitch, through both the top leg of the “V” and the back bump, or under the back bump only. The fur will hide the edge, so it’s not important what it looks like. Since pashmina scarves are the very popular for women, you can also make the pashmina scarves like the fun fur scarves.
