Infinity scarves have a lot to offer. Sewn in a continuous loop, an infinity scarf is a scarf that never ends! Because they can be made from a variety of fabrics, they offer infinite ways to be worn and are very stylish. Most of the fabrics used are considered fashion fabrics made from silky polyester blends that can be worn with just about any outfit. I am proud and excited to share that some of my scarves are being worn by Jessica Simpson, Sarah Jessica Parker, gold medalist Allison Schmitt, and MTV reality star Diem Brown.

Both can be designed from a favorite fabric of a loved one. For example, I customized Miss Madi for a sister, mother, and daughter trio. All three were made out of a dress from their grandmother, in remembrance of her. Another special order I worked on was multiple Lil Easton dolls for each member of a family who lost a child at birth.

Orders can be completed in 7 to 10 days. Custom orders are always welcome for any item Red’s Attic carries.

Most of the items range from $15 to $25. Larger items, such as quilts can vary in price.

The inspiration to create comes from my family. Both of my grandmothers sewed all of their lives, and I vividly remember sitting beside both of them while they sewed, quilted, or made clothes for me to wear when I was little. The fabric designs and colors always fascinated me, and how it went from fabric to little treasures that I still cherish to this day.

Red’s Attic product, excluding the scarves, can be purchased in several stores in North Dakota—Adley Anne's in Grand Forks, Eco Chic in Fargo, the St. Alexius Gift Shop in Bismarck, and Moe Moe’s Garden in Dickinson. And all the products can be found online at www.redsattic.etsy.com.

Shannon LaHaise founded Red’s Attic on a vision and passion to create little things with great love. Her bold red hair and love for exploring the attic for treasures growing up inspired the name. Combined with the time spent sewing and creating with her grandmothers, Red’s Attic of handmade treasures was born.
