Because of the broken wheelchair i become a lot of pain in my neck,=S ,but its much better now;-D
I had nerves damaging . I thought i must make a heating scarf, i had seen something like that in a shop, and because i will move i thought hey i can clean my materials up in a smart way.LOL

so this was a smart thing to make and keep me bussy.LOL

It helped me a lot to ease the pain, but it helps me sure too with to stand the cold, i wrap the scarf too on my feets.;-D

I hope you like it, and of course the herb doesn't need in the scarf, or you can uses a other herb, like roses, and you can insteade of the dried corn, use dried rices.
And,.. there will come a how to of the making of the scarf pillow cover, because i was missing some closuring on the ends.
Feel free to ask me your questions.;-D

Steps (16 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    gather your materials together which you need to use.
    begin to cut the cotton fabric on the right measures.
    i have taken 140cm (56 inches) x 25 cm (10 inches)

    Of course you could uses
    buckweat (its too expensive)
    cherry stones
    rices

    by the rices and the corn, you must when you will heat the scarf allway set a class of water next to the scarf in the microweave, the corn, or rices don't dried out and it will be staying longer in good condition! so you have more profit of your scarf.;-D

    and i've you like you can add some dried herbs like levender too it, i have add 100 gram, i think thats a half cup?
    I really don't understand the measuring of alll the differends countrys, i'm so pitty.

    Some clever direction how much filling, you must be sure that the compartment is everytime half filled!

  7. 7

    Okay, i have told in a project about making funnels of recycling materials.

    Set the "funnel" in the gate of the scarf, and downpour the corn in the scarf through the funnel.
