Scarf Tote Bag Hack
Do you ever need a pretty, lightweight bag to match an outfit in a hurry?
If you have a selection of large, square scarves you’ll never have to worry. You can turn one of them into a lightweight tote bag super quickly.
Tools and materials:
- Large square scarf
- Cord or chain
1. Knot the corners
Tie a knot in all four corners of the bag, leaving a tail of about 6 inches on each.
2. Make the handles
Take the tails of two corners next to each other and tie them firmly together.
Make sure to use a reef knot rather than a slip knot.
Tie the remaining two corners together in the same way. You should now have a bag shape.
You can use the bag as it is, but for a bit of extra oomph and to wear it as a shoulder bag:
3. Add cord handle
Slide a doubled cord or strong chain through both handles.
Loop the ends together for extra strength.
Your new bag can be carried in your hand or looped over your shoulder.

Now you can have a bag to match every outfit without any sewing at all.
