Since the times of Ancient Rus', scarves have been an integral attribute of the national costume of a Russian woman.

Elegant winter scarf with fur
Definition of a headscarf, differences from a scarf
There are three main types of women's shawl-type headdresses:
- The scarf is the main option; it is square , not to be confused with a rectangular stole; as a rule, there is fringe at the edges. The fringe can be silk or wool.
- A shawl differs from a scarf in size (it is 1-5 centimeters larger), as well as in density . The shawl is denser and, accordingly, warmer. Pavlovo Posad shawls always have silk fringes.
- The scarf is triangular in shape, it’s like half a scarf . It is a right-angled equilateral triangle. Fringe is often missing.
Choosing fur
The most popular type of scarves made of mink fur are scarves trimmed with fur.
It must be remembered that the color of the fur should repeat any color on the canvas.
What kind of skins could these be?
- Mink is the undisputed leader, often occupying large areas on the scarf.
- Arctic fox - used for edging, including circular.
- Red and silver fox are also sewn around the perimeter of the product.
- Sable.
- Raccoon.
- Rabbit.
Otter fur is considered the most wear-resistant.
Fur skins have a standard of wearability. Otter fur is considered the most durable and resistant to waterlogging. It is the otter that has the honor of being the standard for all fur-bearing animals, and the fur of fur-bearing animals is compared against it. Even sable fur is inferior to it in strength and wear resistance.
So, if otter fur is 100%, then sable has 80%, mink - 70, arctic fox - 65, astrakhan fur - 60, fox - 50, muskrat - 45, squirrel - 30, ermine and weasel - 25, rabbit - 12, mole and gopher – 10, hare – 5.
Model options
There are three main ways to decorate with fur:
Circular edge around the perimeter. These scarves are more comfortable to wear on the shoulders; tying them under the chin is inconvenient. Depending on the size, such a model can be an analogue of a boa, or a full replacement for a long-sleeved jacket.
Fur trim around the face. Sewn from mink, sable, rabbit. Suitable as an addition to a fur coat with a hood.
A fur scarf is the warmest option, covering almost the entire head, and in winter it can replace a hat.

- An arctic fox skin or several mink skins or old fur products.
- Threads to match the scarf or the leather part of the fur.
- Furrier's needles.
- Furrier's knife or razor blades.
Progress:
You need to cut the skin along the inside with a thin knife or razor. We use a plastic or metal backing, ignoring the wooden one, since wood particles will get stuck in the pile:
- We find all the abrasions of the fur, thin places of the flesh, and mark them with a ballpoint pen.
- We mark strips of the required width on the sandpaper; the length of all these strips should be equal to the perimeter of your product.
Advice! The direction of the pile must always be observed.

- Fold our scarf in half and iron it well.
- Can be glued with double-sided interlining.

- We don’t stretch the flesh.
- Sew the skin on all sides of the strip.
- You should be especially careful with the last fragment of fur.
We sew a fur bonnet
A scarf trimmed with fur only in the area near the face is called a hood.
Advice! A fur collar is suitable for this type of work; you don’t even need to rip it open.
Required:
- Ready scarf or scarf.
- Any fur with low pile, preferably mink or sable.
- Fabric for lining - flap.
- Threads to match the scarf or the leather part of the skin.
- Furrier's needles.
- Furrier's knife or razor blades.
Progress:

- We cut out the lining details and sew them to the fur blank using a seam “over the edge”.
- If you have a ready-made collar with a lining, this is an ideal option.
- When trying it on, we mark on the scarf where the fur should be.
- We sew our lined fur design to the scarf.
Let's try it on.

- next skins.
- Unfolding and straightening (used by using a hammer to tap the seams from the inside out).
- pile Determination on the skins, taking into account the length, and their combination.
- hand sewing When stitching, there is a “slight slack”, but the tension is distributed equally.
- In order to avoid deformation, some parts and sections of the fur coat are duplicated using cushioning material.
- Cotton tapes are used to strengthen the seams (connecting the shoulder elements of the armhole and neckline).
- To align the seams, in order to increase the size of the canvas, stretching is done on a flat surface; nails are used for this purpose.
- Using a metal comb, processing is carried out in places where the skins are connected.
- It is necessary to match the skins, taking into account the length of the pile, its consistency and shade.

Fabric with short pile - the cutting direction does not matter; with long cutting, the pile is made taking into account its direction. When sewing parts, in this case straight stitches are used, and to pull the pile out of the seams, you need to use a needle or use a steamer.
fur Excess at the fabric allowances is cut off. Areas targeted for hemming to reduce volume are subjected to heat. When processing lapels and shoulder seams, reinforcement is necessary with the help of strips; for these purposes, cotton fabric can be used.

It is imperative to strengthen connecting seams such as armhole seams, neck seams, and shoulder seams. These areas are subject to stretching and the tape sewn into the seam strengthens and strengthens it. In sewing accessories stores you can buy regular cotton tape 1.5-2cm wide and use it for these purposes. There are also special adhesive tapes, which furriers call “amplifiers”. They are also used when sewing products made from genuine leather. The tape is placed on one side.

Elegant winter scarf with fur

Even in bitter frosts and heavy snowfalls, a woman tries to look beautiful and elegant.
Since time immemorial, Russian women have always had scarves in their wardrobe.

Scarf with fur on head: outfit for cold winter
Fur is a versatile material that never goes out of style. Fur always looks rich, luxurious and at the same time elegant. The combination of a scarf and fur in general has recently been on the wave of fashion trends. Moreover, such a scarf does not have to be worn on the head; original capes, vests and ponchos are made from them. Let's talk about how to sew a fur-trimmed scarf yourself.
First stage: preparation
Creating such a headdress opens up a wide field for imagination: color, shape, selection of combinations.
Shawl with fur trim
Then you should decide which part of the scarf will be trimmed with fur . It can be completely sheathed along the edge, but in this case it is worth keeping in mind that such a product will be more convenient to wear on the shoulders. The rich fur trim of the bonnet makes it very heavy and bulky, so tying such a scarf on your head will be difficult.
Shawl with fur trim
The most popular option is a partial trim, so that the fur in a tied scarf only frames the oval of the face . You can take the creative ideas of some designers as a basis and trim not only the area around the face, but also make beautiful stripes or patterns throughout the entire canvas. The choice of fabric is also quite simple. It is enough to decide what time of year the product will be worn. If it is severely cold, then, naturally, it is better to choose a woolen scarf: it will both warm you and protect you from the wind.
Light, natural fabrics are perfect for the spring-autumn period. Fur, by the way, can be used from the hood of a jacket or down jacket that has not been worn for a long time. Typically, mink, sable, arctic fox or fox are chosen for edging scarves.
It should be noted that it is necessary to take into account the color combination of the scarf with fur. The finished product should look harmonious, and the fur on it should be expensive and elegant.
Second stage: cutting and sewing
Usually they take a ready-made scarf, bought ahead of time in a store. You can, of course, sew it yourself from start to finish. Fortunately, this does not require any special skills or deep knowledge of sewing. The pattern for the future scarf can be found here.
Benefits of mink scarves
What exactly is a headscarf with mink fur and what are its advantages? What to wear with a fur accessory and how to make it yourself. You will learn all this in our article.
In appearance, a mink scarf is a piece of fur or several pieces of tanned skin sewn together. The scarf is made from the fur of a valuable animal and has three shapes: semicircular, triangular, rectangular. Fur also appears as a trim on woolen and silk scarves.
Advantages
- Practicality . Throwing a fur hat on your head in the winter cold will protect you from the piercing cold wind, without losing your attractive appearance. Indoors, remove the fur accessory from your head and drape it over your shoulders. A fur cape will not only decorate, but also add sophistication and a rich look to your evening outfit.
- Comfortable. Lovers of voluminous hairstyles appreciated the light and warm fur accessory. The fur is so light that the hairstyle under it does not lose its original appearance. The second advantage is that under such an accessory the head “breathes”, which means that the hair will look fresh and well-groomed longer.
- Multifunctionality. The mink accessory has both triangular and rectangular shapes. Use it as a headdress, neckerchief, cape or lumbar bandage.
Benefits of a hood
The practicality of the bonnet has already been appreciated by those who wear this feminine headdress with pleasure in recent seasons, when the fashion for it has revived again.
Fur hood hood
- The main advantage of this headdress is its ability to protect the owner from frost and wind. The hood reliably protects not only the head, but the neck and shoulders from bad weather.
- A fairly spacious hood does not crush the hairstyle, leaving it in its original form.
- The practicality of this thing also lies in the fact that when entering a room there is no need to completely remove it - just fold it over your shoulders like a hood. The result will be the image of a chic wide scarf, hood or snood.
- In addition to its practical side, a bonnet is a very feminine, graceful, elegant headdress. It creates a romantic, fragile image.
Styles of fur bonnets
Bonnets are mainly made from short-pile fur, such as mink, sable, and honor. However, hoods made of fox and silver fox look very luxurious and will perfectly complement, for example, a mink coat without a collar.
Bonnet
This is the most common style option, which combines a fur hat and bonnet. The headdress is tied with laces, the ends of which are decorated with fur pompoms or long “ears”. Such hats practically never went out of children's fashion; they were and are worn with pleasure by young people.
Bandana bonnet
Designers offer interesting models of headwear, for example, a bonnet that can be tied at the back like a bandana. Its main part is made of whole skin, and the bottom is made of thick silk fabric. The hood is put on the head like a hood, and with the help of a cord it is tightened, becoming a bandana. Thick fabric is quite capable of replacing a shirtfront or neckerchief.
Bonnet scarf
One popular option is a kind of hat-scarf. The loose ends of the hood wrap around the neck for a stunning look. This headdress looks great with a down jacket or coat and does not require wearing a scarf.
Hood-hood
This headdress made of mink fur looks very neat and elegant. It looks like a hood with a small shirtfront. There are no unnecessary elements here. However, designers, using beautiful fur inserts, create luxurious, elegant bonnets, as shown in the photo.
Knitted mink
Models made from mink yarn look very interesting and beautiful. This type of hood is more elastic than one sewn from whole skin. Thrown over the shoulders, it can become a luxurious snood. A knitted mink hood goes well with a natural fur coat, coat or down jacket.

Bonnet trimmed with mink
You can buy a hood inexpensively, the base of which is thick fabric or knitted fabric, and the edge is trimmed with expensive fur.

Modeling Lesson: Hood Pattern
Let's figure out what types of hoods there are and learn how to make patterns for any of them. It's not difficult at all, but it requires a creative approach. Hoods can be low-volume, almost hugging the head, or voluminous, gently falling onto the shoulders, with one seam or two, as well as a myriad of models developed on the basis of these basic types. In general, a hood is a cape over the head and it can be absolutely anything, it’s a matter of fashion trends that correspond to the spirit of the time.
The hood can be attached to any product that has a neck. Moreover, it can be either one-piece cut with a shelf, or stitched and fastened. We will look at examples of constructing a hood on the neck of a coat.
They write to us: “Hello, I really liked the coat model 25 963 (apparently we are talking about this coat model),
please tell me how to design this pattern with a hood that is sewn on like an apache collar? Thank you in advance."
We answer.
Hood-collar pattern
To create a pattern for a hood-collar, we will need, in fact, the neck of the product (for example, this product pattern),
and measure the Height of the hood, taken from the figure - place a measuring tape, starting from the top of the head, so that it, as it were, repeats the hood, smoothly falling onto the shoulders. Finish measuring at the neckline at the beginning of the shoulder seam.
1 step of construction.
We build on the details of the shelf. Let's draw an auxiliary line from the highest point of the neck of the shelf perpendicular to the line of the edge of the side.
Step 2 of building the hood.
From the highest point of the neck of the shelf with a radius equal to the length of the back neck + dart opening equal to 3 cm, draw an arc. From the auxiliary line, set aside 4-6 cm in an upward arc and from this point, using a smooth, slightly curved curve, draw a line for sewing the hood into the neck of the back of the coat.
Draw a tuck with a 3 cm solution, 9-11 cm long (see picture).
3 step of construction.
From the point of intersection of the line where the hood is sewn into the neck of the back with the auxiliary arc, draw a perpendicular upward with a length equal to the height of the hood. From the end point - perpendicular to the right at a distance of 25-35 cm (calculated empirically) - the width of the hood.
4 step of construction.
From the extreme point of the width of the hood, lower a straight line to the side line, to a point 1 cm above the first loop of the fastener. Shape the back of the head according to the model, rounding the corners.
5 step of construction.
The final view of the pattern of a one-piece hood-collar with a shelf.
Based on this pattern, by changing the width of the side, the height of the first loop of the fastener, the absence of a fastener at all, as well as changing the volume (height, width) of the hood, you can simulate different models of the hood. You can also cut it along the front neck line!
Now, let's look at constructing a pattern for a cut-off low-volume hood. Such models are often used in sportswear and uniforms - jackets, sweatshirts, raincoats...
Burberry brand designers love to use their designs in their famous duffle coats and trench coats.
By the way, on our website we have a wonderful pattern for a trench coat from the Burberry brand. (The pattern is given for sizes 40-60!! for 4! heights.) The trench coat does not have a hood, but after reading this article you can very easily build and sew a button-down hood! You can fasten it from the back to the collar stand, having first sewn buttons on it, and punched loops on the hood.
But you can model such original hoods based on the construction of the basic pattern of a cut-off low-volume hood.
To create a hood pattern we will need
- length of the neck of the product (measure on the drawing of the shelf and back)
- hood height (head height + increase 4-6 cm) Head height is measured from the crown to the highest point of the shoulder seam, at the base of the neck.
- hood width (1/3 head circumference + 4-5 cm increase = usually 23-25 cm)
Step 1 of creating a hood pattern.
Set aside 4 cm upward along the Y axis, then the height of the hood = head height + 4-6 cm. Draw a perpendicular to the right. From a point on the Y axis (4 cm), draw an inclined straight line to the X axis, length = 1/2 neck. back + 1/2 neck shelf +3 cm.
Step 2 of creating a hood pattern
Place the width of the hood on the perpendicular axis Y of the straight line. The width is equal to 1/3 of the circumference of the head + increase. Make the hood stitching line with a smooth concave curve, on which first (starting from the front of the hood towards the back of the head) set aside the length of the neckline of the front, then 3 cm - the tuck solution - draw a dart - 9-11 cm long. Then, set aside the length of the back neck line .
Step 3 of constructing a hood pattern.
Form the line of the crown with a smooth curve, rounding the crown.
The base pattern for the hood is ready. Let's model it to get a hood-helmet pattern with an insert.
To do this, mark a line for the width of the insert parallel to the middle seam at a distance of 5.5 cm. Cut along this line. The length of the insert is equal to the length of the stitching line, which must be measured on the drawing. The width at the top (above the forehead) is 11 cm, and the width at the bottom (at the neck) is 8 cm, because we get rid of the dart (i.e. it is transferred to the stitching seam of the insert. All that remains is to complete the fastener part (in accordance with the sketch).
I hope our lesson was useful to you and you can easily create a unique hood model! Advice - if you are not confident in your abilities, make a dummy hood from unnecessary fabric. Then you definitely won’t go wrong with the proportions. Good luck and creative mood!

- A mink fur hood goes harmoniously with a natural fur coat, as well as coats, sheepskin coats, and leather jackets. The only thing here is that you will need to combine the style of the hood with outerwear.
- Under the hood, you need to select a style of outerwear without a voluminous collar and without a hood. Fur bonnets and hoods are mutually exclusive.
- A hood made of mink and other fur should be worn with a fur coat made of natural fur. With an artificial fur coat they wear a knitted headdress or one made of synthetic fur.
Where to start modifying a fur coat
At the beginning of work on shortening a fur coat, you need to prepare the necessary items so that during the repair process you will not be distracted while looking for the necessary item. All you need is:
- strong contrasting and fur-colored threads;
- centimeter;
- needles;
- flat chalk or soap;
- sharp scissors, blade.
Visually, it is very difficult to determine the length of a fur coat so that it turns out to be optimal. Therefore, you need to straighten it, comb it and definitely put it on. The mirror should provide a full-length image. During the fitting process, it is extremely important to use shoes with which the reconstructed mink coat will be worn in the future. If new boots are just in your plans, shoes whose heels match the desired height of your future purchase will also work.
