Look at that crepey chin waddle. OMG.
For this scarf I just cut the top of the turtle neck tee at the point where the sleeves were attached. Straight across (following one of the stripes. Then I cut off the bottom hem as it was making it difficult to "stretch" the fabric. I pulled the loop over my head, then twisted it and over the head again. Then fiddle with the folds until it looks good to you. What I am liking, very much, is that my neck is now warm. I am finding, this winter, that if my neck is warm, I feel warmer. I think it comes with being 65.
I might have wanted the stripes to be going the other way (up and down) originally, but that would have required sewing seams and multiple cuts. This was easier for my first try.

You have not aged since the last photo. It's just the lower angle and the lighting isn't very good or flattering, either. Never take a portrait from a low angle unless you're going for a less than flattering look.
Low angles and lighting are what they used to do when shooting old horror movies so let that be a lesson to you! Boris Karloff, you are NOT!
That scarf seems an easy do. Must look around the house to see if I find anything suitable to try one. Would be nice for spring too, made out of cotton.
Oh, I do not take pics of myself at all. It ages me or so I want to believe..I am 3 years off 60 this year.
