By purchasing the nicest faux fur you can find you can create a retro, Mad Men-style wrap that is animal-friendly.
Project Steps
Take some heavy cotton or muslin to create a pattern piece, or use the one I created: http://blog.craftzine.com/archive/2011/1…
Take your faux fur and place it with the nap of the fur facing down. Place your pattern piece on top and pin the perimeter. Cut the fur out with a utility knife.
Choose a lining fabric that is a heavier cotton. Pin your newly cut faux fur to your lining fabric, good sides together, and sew the perimeter leaving a 1/4″ seam allowance.
Leave an unsewn gap and turn the piece right-side-out. Fold and pin the gap, then sew it closed.
Add a hook and eye closure or a nice ribbon and rock your faux fur wrap.
Conclusion
Using a basic sewing pattern you can create the same wrap as I did. Here is the link to the pattern: http://blog.craftzine.com/archive/2011/1...
