With the winter winds howling and the snow falling, what better way to stay warm than a cozy reversible cowl? Choose any two warm fabrics you like to match many outfits! I used navy microfleece and a patterned sweatshirt fleece. Enjoy your cozy cowl, make some for friends, and stay toasty warm this winter!

Cut two fabric pieces 11 1/2" - 12" x 32" - make it shorter, longer, or narrower by adjusting

Make sure you have sharp scissors or a rotary cutter for neat edges. Be mindful of any patterns or borders when cutting printed fabric.

Iron your pieces - this makes sewing a lot easier.

Put right sides together, and pin in place as shown

*If you are using stretchy fabric, be sure to use a ballpoint needle on your sewing machine*

Sew a seam on each long edge, using 1/2" seam. You are making a large tube.

Turn your tube right side out

Fold ends in about an inch and iron

Pin ends together and hand-sew around to sew closed, hiding the seam
