Sew a Triangle Scarf for Winter

January 7, 2025 by Anne Weaver

With cold weather here, it’s scarf season.  I used to never wear scarves but this last year or so I’ve come to love them.  I wear a scarf or cowl nearly every day.  The extra layers of fabric around my neck are often just enough to keep me warm without the bulk of wearing a heavy coat.  And on the days that are super cold, a scarf pairs nicely with a coat to keep me extra warm.

Super Simple Sewing has an easy to follow tutorial showing how to sew a triangle scarf.  The scarf is a large triangle that wraps around your neck twice, with a button and loop closure on the ends to keep it in place.   It’s made from two layers of knit fabric.  If you use a sweater knit for one of those fabrics, it’ll look like a knitted scarf without you having to knit a stitch!

The triangle shape allows for a lot of coverage in the front while keeping the bulk at the back to a minimum.  That way you can layer a coat or jacket over your scarf easily.  The ends wrap around the back and then close at the front. 

For a lighter weight scarf you could use two layers of a lightweight jersey knit.  For a heavier scarf, make one of the layers from fleece.  Once you pick out your fabric, it’s just a few easy seams to make the triangle scarf.

I really love the button and loop closure.  If you’re like me and no good at tying scarves, the button closure makes it easy to style your scarf.  Her tutorial shows how to make this closure, including the covered cord to make the loop.

Go to Super Simple Sewing to see how to make this cozy and warm triangle scarf for winter.
