SEXY // COZY Sleeved Scarf + Top for FALL! - DIY w/ Orly Shani

[@Karen-nq8du]

Okay!!! This is amazing! I'm imagining not wearing it as a "show up in it" outfit, but whipping it on in a restaurant or club when I feel chilly. And saying, "Oh this? I just made it!". xo karen

[@lottiesmith8937]

I like the way you think! LOL

[@Lavenderrose73]

That's how I thought of using this for, but it would allow me to wear a cooler, simpler top because I would just need it for covering while this would be for keeping me warm.

[@andreaf5765]

I wish I need what actual fabric this was at Joanns. It's adorable

[@julierosie62]

Thumbholes on the cuff! Yassssss ❤

[@AngelicVox]

I totally didn’t just make a late night emergency run to Joann’s to get fabric for this because serendipitously there was a big sale that ended tonight (I swear I didn’t make a mess and I was out of the store before they actually closed. Also, thank you for always trying to explain how to find the right measurements, and which areas need to be measured, to adjust your DIYs to match any individual’s size. As a short plus-sized woman it’s really nice to feel included 💖

[@schutty21]

What type of fabric did you get? I am having trouble finding the right type to use

[@AngelicVox]

@@schutty21 I got a very soft fleece that has good stretch and isn’t too thick or heavy (in a pretty purple plaid, not that that’s a relevant detail lol). I’m pretty sure the fabric she got is a “specialty fleece” that my Joann shelves near the designer fabric section and the fleece section. You can also go into your local store (even if it’s not a Joann fabrics) and show them the project and ask what they recommend. Keep in mind your own preferences for color, texture, and weight/warmth of the fabric you use. Also patterned fabric can be a pain to line up, so maybe keep that in mind 😅 They should also be able to help guide you with things like “beginner friendly” and “fray-resistant” materials. Good luck! I hope yours turns out well!

[@schutty21]

@@AngelicVox Thank you so much! This is really helpful and exactly what I needed. I'm in Australia, so no Joann's, but I will talk to my local fabric store to find out their recommendation. Thank you again ❤ I can't wait to make this! It has been living rent free in my head since the video came out! I went to my local store yesterday but was to intimidated and left with nothing. I am now feeling more confident to go back today 😁

[@irairod5160]

Orly! This was so easy, that I went to the store, bought the fabric, measured myself, and SEWED IT BY HAND! I'm wearing it right now! It took me less than 2 hours, including the shopping. I will take it to the sewing machine later, but for now, it's super cool just the way it is. Thank you!

[@kamialmeida679]

That's what I'm going to have to do! Any tips? Especially for the wrists?

[@Sweetlady1916]

Yeah, how do the wrist 14:37 by hand?

[@irairod5160]

@Sweetlady1916 Use very long basting (gathering) stitches. Reduce both the sleeve and the cuff to the proper size. Match the seams. Backstitch to join, then use blanket stitches to finish the interior seam.

[@rebeccabailie758]

Hi Orly, Chantal from @knitatude is the designer who designed and sells the knitted pattern at the beginning of your you tube video. Like you Chantal is a small business owner. I'm sure she would of loved a shout out from you, sharing the love between 2 women with small busineses.

[@Knitatude]

Awe thanks love! Thanks for tagging me here. I couldn't agree more :)

[@ChristyWallin]

Fun idea! Tho w regard to the cuff application (sleeve into tiny cuff circumference) it might be easier to attach the cuff (well and possibly sleeve too) when it's flat, then stitch the cuff seam to close as a last step..... stuffing the sleeve into that tiny cuff "tube" is seriously sewing in the dark, all the while bound by a bungy strap!

[@LaurenCohen67]

My machine has the option of removing part of its arm so I can more easily sew narrow parts😊

[@OrlysChannel]

ugh I wish mine did too

[@irairod5160]

I did a basting stitch (by hand) on the sleeve and gathered it a little. Then pinned sleeve and cuff at the seam, at other 3 quarters, and distributed the remaining sleeve gathers between the 4 points, pinning parallel to the raw edges. Once the gathers were "in place", I stitched it all together by hand. I was able to make the whole shrug in less than 2 hours, and didn't even use my machine!

[@fluffypuffs]

lol i wish i read this before i just made mine 😅 it turned out fine tho ☺

[@tara1638]

Amazing! Now I know what I’m making everyone for Christmas! Thank you!❤

[@lorigleason9016]

It would be so neat to have that videotaped and Orley share that on her channel at the end of the year as a wind down of her styles! It could be fantastic 🤯

[@keniaarandacruz733]

What a great idea !

[@melissaprinzing2701]

You can sew the cuff to the sleeve 1st before sewing the 12 inch arm seam and closing the wrist

[@DannaLee15]

Not only are all your videos amazing and tutorials so easy to follow, but YOUR ENERGY gets me amped to be creative! I love even just listening to your videos while I'm sewing or crocheting. I've stopped projects to try yours too haha thank you!🥰

[@kandyappleview]

Omg same! I don't even sew but i do like to hack my outfits and she's given me a bunch of crochet ideas. I love the way she explains things too. Makes it so simple to follow.

[@DannaLee15]

@@kandyappleview Agreed! She's just so sparky and fun the way she goes about things! Her hack for taking combat pants and making them fashionable has given me so many ideas for all of my old air force uniforms!

[@amyradbill1836]

OMG, I was at JoAnn Fabrics yesterday, drooling over all the knits (all the apparel fabrics are on sale right now too-they’re all 30% off, until September 27, I think?). The shrug scarf is adorable, and I may try to make one, but I admit it’s the skirt I’m extra into. 😍 Looking forward to that video too!

[@ibmimi2566]

For the thicker bulky stuff, you could use a quilting foot which takes the bulk into account.

[@kateapple1]

You can also use the lines on your hardwood floor

[@alee9961]

What an ingenious idea! Love all the looks and how versatile this is. Well done, as always!😊

[@debcobb9739]

I am a seamstress/quilter/crafter and I tried something similar years ago with my first effort knitting...I crochet quite well but I wanted a very loose stitch and I taught myself to knit one stitch on very large needles. My finish was long and wide but I wasn't too happy with it. I then sewed the cuffs together and wore it like that. This is totally different. Just a little hint...when you have that much fabric to fit on a cuff...sew the cuff on before you sew up the sleeves...so much easier.

[@rexhart1011]

You are the queen of fashion DIY's, !!!

[@cherileerogers1650]

This would be cozy for reading in bed in the winter. 🥶 Great idea! Thank you!

[@TheCAshton4]

When your circle is too small to fit onto the arm of your machine, sew on the inside of your circle. That puts all the extra fabric above your foot it makes it easier for you to maneuver it.

[@leahquispe4569]

I like it as an outfit with skirt and wrap sweater!

[@katlambert3649]

Talk about tonal dressing. 🔥 This is some thing that I’m going to use. Definitely. Thanks for sharing.

[@nicoleburton3716]

I was looking for a wrap to make to go over a dress for a wedding. I think I found it, this will be perfect in my indigo Satin. Running to Joann’s right now!!

[@mishalindalittle2617]

THIS has been by far your best creation. I love it!!! You must feature it in the end of the year FAVES. It's one of my favorite fall wearable. ❤❤❤❤

[@OrlysChannel]

Wow, thank you!

[@cinemaocd1752]

I love that fabric. Do you know what it's called? I can't wait for the skirt video. I have some free people harem pants that have they most comfy/flattering rib knit waist band and I would love to learn how to put that kind of waist band on a skirt or pants.

[@cathyjustcathy785]

OK, I just found you by some incredible luck, and have been binge-watching your videos. All I can say is WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY INTERNET LIFE?!!!! Your content and personality have me hooked! You and your "Little" are adorable! So many amazing ideas!

[@kateapple1]

THEYRE CALLED SHRUGS! 😂 they’re from the 90’s and omg I had one in every color and texture.. AND they used to sell just fashion SLEEVES? You remember those? And the little cuffs too? Man I miss 90’s fashion lol. Eff the 2000’s

[@oliviaayala2103]

Oh my gosh!!!! I wanna that!! I have to make that but first I need a sewing class to learn so I can make that

[@cwiggins7416]

Sunday funday with Orly! This is awesome. You never disappoint ❤❤

[@OrlysChannel]

thank you!!

[@AR-gg2su]

My favorite is the skirt. Will be copying the idea😊

[@Hremo_158]

I love this Orly! This one is Truly ALL ages friendly. Can't wait to see how you made the skirt.

[@Just_Kirsty]

Honestly, I taught myself how to sew and how to actually make my own patterns and understanding how to do stuff (still learning, still a journey) but I have NEVER seen anyone who inspired me more than you. You make the most simple and yet most beautiful creations on your channel. And honestly, this sleeved scarf, the top, the skirt: full on my aesthetic. I love this. I do have some knit fabric lying around (it's been stored away for over 2 years actually because I knew I wanted to make a dress or two piece out of it but couldn't figure out the style and shape for it yet) and this video really sparked something in me to finally make an actual garment out of it that I can wear this fall and winter season.

[@Ellaodi]

as someone who lives in Florida I LOVE THIS as a way to extend my summer clothes to the christmas season because its only cold in the a/c here😂

[@kristinaperinot7544]

SUPER COOL ❤❤❤ you are the bomb 😊

[@vallerilapoint6219]

You are answering all my DIY versatile wardrobe dreams one at a time. I am already a sucker for a good wrap scarf. This is another homerun Orly. Thank you for the entire outfit pieces. When you make the skirt video can the length be a tad longer? I don't have nice thin thighs. Thanks so much.

[@ninaarroyo]

You're simply amazing, everything in your channel is gold. Thank you!!!!!!!

[@Spiceolyfe721]

Heading to thrift stores tomorrow for knit scarves ❤

[@YourFavYoutuberHere]

Omg . Loved ot. Can't wait for the tutorial for the skirt

[@julietmurphy8637]

You are awesome- my sisters are getting this for Christmas!

[@merrilew]

This is amazing and I’m so grateful. I bought one of these in the airport in Atlanta several years ago and I absolutely love it and worn it to death. It’ll be nice to be able to make my own and in my own favorite colors!

[@merrilew]

My new travel necessity. Always going to be in my flight bag! Thank you love

[@tatiko2404]

I actually knitted that one wrap version many years ago. I like this version much more!

[@anjulidimarni]

I knitted the scarf that you show and its so cozy but now i want this sewn version with the skirt! Can't wait for that video to drop. I think they'd be perfect for travel since they wouldn't crush and you can mix and match.

[@zenbrooklyn]

Ok ok ok.... I'm obsessed AGAIN 😂😂 i LOVE this type of dune/star trek/wars futuristic vibe😌 thank you! I'ma have to make this and tag you if I can ever get the confidence 🥶🤣

What fabric is this it looks soo cool , can I get it in Scotland?

This is a perfect fabric choice, color choice, execution, editing, and styling. Overall winner and very unique.

[@jodycotsmire6360]

Love this. Hate showing my arms and this will give me so many more clothing options to wear. Might make it shorter as to being just enough to cover my arms.

[@tanyavaldez7706]

yess!! So stoked, you're gonna love it

❤❤❤❤❤ okay......i might have to try actual sewing! I NEED THIS!❤❤❤

Big WOW , it's really gorgeous, thaaaanks much for this idea ❣

I just mad this today (only ne wrap around) and i used a bit of a thicker knit and its so cool am comfy i figured i can even wear it as a long statement scarf if i want to. thanks ly bye ❤

So cool! I love this! ✴️💟💕✨️💖✨️💕💟✴️

Hey love! This is so pretty and I am so glad you used my videos as inspo! If you could, please tag my shop and give it credit in your description. I would really appreciate it, plus it would really help another small business out as I do sell the knitting patterns for them. Cheers!

YOU ARE FABULOUS! 💎 I do not wear skirts, but I would absolutely wear this one!!

oooh yes!

You are very talented and I appreciate that you take the time to show us all the different ways to wear the beautiful creations that you 've made. Lots of love and light.

[@grandmasmagic3858]

I think I'd like to do this in a crocheted version..use some lightweight yarn..

[@elloeveryone7762]

Just want to say…You are just a gem of a person. I love watching your videos and get so inspired. Thank you for being you and sharing with all of us! ❤

[@Lisab.5466]

I ❤ you and your channel!! Ty for all you do!

[@stoneyblue603]

Instead of a cuff you could do some cuts and thread a ribbon. I think that's a little bit easier for someone without or less experiences in sewing 😊

[@CelestialBlossoms]

Gorgeous! ❤ I wanna try making this.

[@ruchisharma851]

Thanks❤❤❤❤❤

[@siufashion]

Orly you are amazing! This DIY is probably one of my favourites you have done.👍

[@blufaerie]

This is so cute! I used to crochet wrapping sleeves like this!

[@daylite07]

This is so clever. Love it. I can’t wait to see how you made the skirt next. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into these videos.

[@megcreates2.0]

What was the exact fabric called you used @orlyshani ?

[@DrMaryVision]

I am thinking over the top fabric options for a New Year’s party or holiday event! Is gold lame stretchy enough, and does the stretch fabric have to be the same color on its front and back to create the gorgeous, continuous drape? Also, you could pirate cuffs off of a thrifted garment for variety and simplicity. The cuff method in the video was a little intimidating, so I would just gather them before adding the wristband piece! Very cool episode. Top five, in my opinion!😊

[@melz3752]

For those of us that are VERY new to sewing would it be possible to trim the ends of the fabric, the area where our hands would come out, smaller to make cuff sewing easier or would that be hard to keep the rest of the fabric the correct measurement? Thanks for your help!

[@catirodriguez6290]

Love this so much. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@GreenKatsupGirl]

I'm new, thank you for this!!!!

[@lilim2952]

Thanks for sharing. It's extremely beautiful, but I guess you have to be size 2 to look cool in it.

[@amysnyder1844]

Girl!!! I'm loving this! Making this for sure! Thanks Orly

[@cxqcxq5176]

I love this and will be on the lookout for a fabric like this but in dark grey or black, maybe ombre

[@nurak992]

[@helendavenport7298]

Amazing! Thankyou 🎉🎉🎉

[@deniseoates7147]

This is totally a great stylish and comfy looking garment and with a sewing machine easy to put together. And what great gifts. I have a few scarves that have this aesthetic but on a smaller level and since I am a large chested woman they don't really lay well. But this gives me a possible way to creat something that would work better for me. I saw the skirt tutorial first and loved it. My one question why did you not use zig zag stitch (is that usually used on stretch fabric?), what would there be a benefit one way of another. Would serging the hidden seams work better for those of us not as petite and seam might have more stress? Thanks for sharing and ta ta for now!

[@lifeofaimee6259]

Stunning on you!

[@kimstanley9850]

Love, love, love this so so much! Absolutely brilliant and so chic and elegant too. Thanks for sharing your beautiful creations. This checks all the boxes for me and will be making several for fall and winter.

Love the jeans dark stripe.

[@Berryations]

Already picked out my fabric!! 😁😁😁 how did you do the dune wrap tho?

[@barbarareeves8754]

Omg! It's beautiful 😍 I just saw this video last night and had to go for fabric shopping today. Unfortunately I didn't find the type of material you have but something nice and just finished my scarf/top woohoo!!! It's amazing!!! And I wouldn't call myself fluent with sawing, but your instructions are so clear and easy to follow 😉 Thank you so much 😊 skirt is next, I hope that I manage that too. Thank you 😊 💓

[@erict7093]

I love this idea. Great! Thanks!

[@teresasalyer5849]

Oh my I absolutely love this so much I'll be headed to Joann's tomorrow to look for that exact fabric 😁 Could you please tell me the name / type of fabric that is ?

[@teresasalyer5849]

I had no luck finding fabric like yours at my Joann's. Would you happen to know the item number so I could try to search for online please?

[@lynnlogan5158]

Ooooooh! This is so aammaazzzzziiiing! I’m going to Italy in October, and have to make this for chilly nights😊 Thanks Orly. The longer length makes it so much more versatile and stylish.

[@Lavenderrose73]

Oh my gosh I love that! And I love that tube-top you made as well, I never realized it would be easy as just sewing a big piece of fabric into a tube and then pulling it over and then making spaghetti straps for it! Knowing that would have been very helpful at the beginning of Summer, but maybe I could still use it during the winter because I could play around with scarves for warmth, including this one!

[@megcreates2.0]

I absolutely love it! Can’t wait for the skirt video although I might have to figure it out cuz I’m going to TN for a horse show and it’ll be adorable with cowgirl boots and comfy as heck!
