In reply to Joanne. Hmmm.. I don't think you'll get the same result. But using regular thread you could just "Gather" the strips and perhaps have a similar look.

Do you think if I hand stitched with the elastic thread, will that work?

Hi Sheryl,
You can use minky, just be sure to finish the edges to prevent it from shedding all over. =)

I personally have never used it – but I believe it would work fine!

What about using clear elastic? My machine would like that better!

In reply to Connie Jordan. The only way I've found is to turn under the fleece a 1/2 to inch and sew along the edge with a zig zag stitch to prevent it from curling under. -Angel

Is there a way to prevent the fleece scarf sides from curling? I made my husband a scarf but it curls too much to be serviceable. I was wondering if hemming the opposite way of the curl would help, what would you do?
