I have called all of the Joann Fabrics, I have been to a Hancock Fabric and 2 Wal-Marts along with Hobby Lobby. I saw it EVERYWHERE last week when I wasn't looking for it and now I can't seem to find it. Does anyone in the DFW area have any ideas. TIA.

I just came from Wally World and I saw about 2 yards (give or take) on a bolt. It is $5.84 per yard. But, I am no where near Texas!

Can you call those stores back to see if they can order some for you from another store?

call the stores back when they restock. They are probably just sold out.

Did you find what you needed?

Thanks so much for checking. I found some about an hour away after I ordered 4 yards off of e-bay. It was cold this weekend so I made the trip and made the scarves for 10 of us. They turned out really cute which is great because I DO NOT sew. I have had a sewing machine for 15 years and used it twice Now I have all of the ebay stuff coming in next week. I want to make her a fleece blanket to match the scarf, but it is so stretchy and I am not sure I can do something that hard...lol. I guess I will try. It can't hurt

I am glad you found it. Maybe you could make a no-sew one? With the fringed edges?

I think that is what I am going to do...but I am doing red on one side and the striped on the other. I think I have to sew a rectangle leaving some fabric around the edges and then cut strips around the edge and tie them. They look simple enough to make, but when I was making the scarves, the fabric would always stretch and become uneven...but it was easy to fix by cutting a little off at the end because they did not have to be a certain length. I should just buy things like that and not worry about trying...lol.
