Create Twist it! Loop Scarf
Now’s the perfect time to use a serger!
Set serger overlocker machine for a 4-thread serger overlock stitch. Insert new Schmetz ELx 705 Serger Needles Size 80/12 and thread machine with Four Cones Coordinating Serger Cone Threads
Fold fabric rectangle, right sides together, meeting long edges. Pin.
When placing pins for a serging project, insert pins parallel to fabric cut edge – this way you don’t risk cutting into pins with your serger blade!
Serge long edge seam with 1/4″ seam allowance. Trim fabric cut edges, while stitching. Remove pins, while stitching.
If stitching scarf with a sewing machine, set sewing machine for a “wobble-stitch”: Choose a slight zigzag (2.0-2.5 length and .5 width). On the outside, this stitch will give the appearance of a straight stitch, while providing a slight amount of stretch to the seam! If stitching with a sewing machine, be sure to backstitch at seam beginning and ending. For extra durability during wear – stitch this seam again, stitching over original stitching line. No need to double stitch when using a serger!
Fold fabric tube, right sides together, stacking and aligning stitched seam: Reach into the fabric tube and turn tube onto itself keeping right sides together, stitched side seam aligned, and align cut edges.
Place pins through single fabric layers, opposite from stitched seam, along folds of short ends. “Twist” fabric tube and align pins with stitched seams. Pin.
Using Clover’s 5-in-1 Sliding Gauge, measure and mark a 3″- 4″ opening (for turning) along one cut edge, approximately 3″- 4″ from seam. Mark opening with Clover’s Chaco Liner or I Sew For Fun Marking Pen.
Stitch seam, leaving seam open between markings.
Finish Twist it! Loop Scarf
Turn scarf right side out through seam opening. Fuse Clover’s 1/4″ Fusible Web Tape strip to one inner seam allowance, at seam opening.
Remove paper backing from Clover’s 1/4″ Fusible Web Tape. Press seam closed.
Optional: Using a hand sewing needle and thread, hand stitch seam opening closed!
