Scarves for the Homeless


Want a quick and easy charity project? I make these polar fleece scarves for the homeless each year. No sewing! Just cut the fleece across the width, about 8" wide. Then make slices for fringe. This is a great use for old rotary blades. The polar fleece dulls them pretty quickly.





Then take the scraps and tie them in knots to make great doggie toys!

My guild does this every year and it is such a quick and useful project. There is also a quick and easy pattern for hats too.

My favorite idea too! I used to involve my daughter and her friends in this project. They
are so cozy!
