Gathered top
Turn a large silk scarf into a gathered top with a soft neckline, tied behind the neck and at the back.
What you will need
- a large square silk scarf
- a mirror
Step-by-step instructions
- Tie the scarf behind your neck. Tie the two upper corners of the square scarf in a secure double knot behind your neck.
- Spread out the front. Let the scarf drape loosely over the front of your body.
- Take hold of the lower corner. Take it from the inside and bring it upwards.
- Create the gathers. Pull the lower corner down through the upper section to create soft folds at the neckline.
- Adjust the front. Spread the gathers evenly across your chest.
- Secure the top at the back. Pull the lower ends to the back and tie them in a double knot.
Tip
Spread the gathers evenly before tying the lower ends so the fabric does not bunch up in the centre.
