My nieces go to the school as well, so I ended up making costumes for the Green Witch, Susan, Peter, the White Witch, and Aslan (you can see them all here). I made a fur stole for the White Witch costume and have a pattern to share with you, as well as some tips for working with faux fur. My niece is six, but this would work for a younger girl by shortening the scarf pieces and for an older girl by lengthening and widening them.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14749 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse.jpg\" alt=\"White Winter Girl's Stole and Tips for Working with Faux Fur {{Friends Stitched Together for So Sew Easy}}\" width=\"550\" height=\"692\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse.jpg 550w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse-238x300.jpg 238w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse-500x629.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse-119x150.jpg 119w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 550px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 550\/692;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14749\" src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse.jpg\" alt=\"White Winter Girl's Stole and Tips for Working with Faux Fur {{Friends Stitched Together for So Sew Easy}}\" width=\"550\" height=\"692\" srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse.jpg 550w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse-238x300.jpg 238w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse-500x629.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/029editsse-119x150.jpg 119w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You will need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The pattern: <a href=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Stole-Pattern.pdf\">Stole Pattern<\/a><\/li>\n<li>1\/2 yard of faux fur (you will only use half, but you need the length) or another appropriate fabric such as minky or velvet<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 yard lining fabric<\/li>\n<li>3&#8243; of cord\/ribbon\/elastic<\/li>\n<li>1 button<\/li>\n<li>Comb or <a href=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/l\/seam_ripper\" title=\"Amazon.com: seam ripper\" class=\"pretty-link-keyword\">seam ripper<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Scissors &#8211; both your regular fabric scissors and a small, sharp pair<\/li>\n<li>Ruler<\/li>\n<li>Sharpie (black or silver &#8211; this is discussed further down)<\/li>\n<li>Vacuum<\/li>\n<li>Seam allowance is 1\/2&#8243;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14588 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit.jpg\" alt=\"001edit\" width=\"550\" height=\"349\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit.jpg 550w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit-500x317.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit-150x95.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 550px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 550\/349;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14588\" src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit.jpg\" alt=\"001edit\" width=\"550\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit.jpg 550w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit-500x317.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/001edit-150x95.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I cut all my faux fur on my kitchen floor.
