Description

Caftans have sort of gotten a bad rap since the 70’s. But I still love them, and I think they can be sexy, saucy, and stylish all at once if you go about it in the right way.

I’m going to show you how you can make your own super easy caftan top that will be perfect for any occasion.

Material Notes

Supplies:
2 large scarves (mine are 42"X 42"or 106.5 cm square), thread, pins, measuring tape, sewing machine (or needle if you’d prefer to do this by hand…which you can, it’s that easy!)

    I just wanted to let you know that your .pdf didn’t turn out right. I don’t know how one is put together, but from what I can tell, your pictures are quite a bit too large. Thought you might want to know so that you could “fix” it if you wanted to. As for your idea and instructions…love them!
