Pleated Scarf

So, I don't know about anybody else, but I am so ready for the Fall.  I love the cooler wether and getting ready for Halloween.  So, while I am waiting for the Fall to come, I decided to try my hand at making a pleated scarf.  It ended up being a little bit shorter than I wanted, but I am so happy with how it turned out.  I was a little nervous about sewing pleats, but after looking at a few youtube videos and tutorials, it was not as hard as I thought it would be.  I used a knit jersey fabric for the scarf.  I sewed the scarf on both sides of the pleats and also down the center of the pleats as well.  I am thinking about making some more of these as gifts for Christmas.
