Tutorial: Frayed Scarf

I've had this material for awhile and knew I wanted to make a scarf.  This scarf is for those who like a bit of personality with their pieces.
Why?
Because the edges are frayed!
They fray a little more each time you wear it.
When the fraying gets a bit too long, you just trim it (making sure not to cut into the seam).
Here's how I made a frayed edges scarf:
Sew around all edges of the material with a straight stitch.  I left about 1/2 an inch all around.
Now you have a straight stitch.
Trim the excess fabric as close to the stitch as you can without cutting into the stitching.
Now let the fraying begin on its own!
This is made from a lightweight fabric, but it's long and thick, so it would be great for fall and light winter days!
