Make a cute iScarf with a simple sewing projectThis funky scarf has a pocket for your MP3 player, letting kids rock out to cool tunes while keeping warm.

To make it:

• Cut a piece of polar fleece into a long rectangle. (This one is 7 by 38 inches.)

• For the pocket, cut a polar fleece rectangle that's about an inch wider than your music player. (This pocket is 3¾ by 4 1/2 inches.)

• Thread an embroidery needle with embroidery floss.

• Use a running stitch to sew three sides of the rectangle to the scarf, as shown.

• Attach pom-pom ball trim to the ends of the scarf with fabric glue.
