Val's scarf source question (solved)

[angelus0313]

Hello,

 I was wondering if anyone can help locate the scarf used for this version. I done some research, but everyone I have found so far been the wrong shade of color, them being more a actual vibrant red then the apple red mentioned in the crl. The only one I kindof found that looked correct, at least on the internet, is about 300 USD and made of cashmere which is the wrong material and way more then I willing to put into this costume. That price tag is more than what I paid for my kit at the time.

Any help locating this is welcome.

AFA the scarf, I would look at blanket material. Cashmere sounds odd, but start looking at blankets. I jus looked at her images again and its a fairly tight weave, not loose and open and not hairy like cashmere.  You may even find some blizzard fleece, or even try dying blizzard fleece, to that shade.

okay, I will look into the mentioned fabric as that was my next thought of maybe fabricating with some fabric that looks correct. Only thing is going to be rough to use it in the Alabama summer heat.
