DIY Vinyasa Scarf from hammersandhighheels.blogspot.com

Britta asked me to try making her this DIY version of the Lululemon Vinyasa Scarf  from Hammers & High Heels, which I did. I actually made two of them from the same piece of soft, flowy grey jersey knit, one for her and one for me, but I am afraid they are fragile, so I will give them both to her so she doesn't feel as bad if hers rips. See, after the fact I learned that the original uses snap tape, not snaps placed directly on the fabric, and just in playing with this one I am seeing that the snaps are going to pull right through that soft fabric. Next time I will track down matching snap tape.

Disappointing, because it turned out pretty!

Did you use those extra snaps toward the middle like the high heels and hammers blog? I made most of one today. I am struggling with which part of the snap to use. My husband the engineer says it should not matter if there is not a top and a right side that will always be showing on the outside.

Amy, yes I did - only I had the same question as you did, so I actually did two snaps in each of the areas (not right side by side, but nearby) she had them in the middle of her scarf. That way I could snap it no matter which way it was wrapped. If that makes any sense.
