DIY: T-Shirt Scarf in 11 Steps

 Step 1: gather old t-shirts


Step 2: cut off the hem of the t-shirt

 

Step 3: cut t-shirt horizontally into 1" strips from bottom of shirt until you reach the armpits



Step 4: Cut off sleeves


Step 5: cut off the hem of the sleeves
 

Step 6: Taking all of the hems, make one cut in each so that you now have a strip of fabric instead of a ring. Then, cut the strips into 5" long pieces
 

Step 7: Take one t-shirt ring, and stretch it out so that it goes from looking like the top strip to looking like the bottom strip


Step 8: take the now stretched out t-shirt loop and wrap it around your hand (the palm part) and slide it off so that your fabric loop is now stacked in a circle.


Step 9: repeat steps 7 and 8 with all of the t-shirt loops


Step 10:  using one of the 5" strips of hem fabric, tie two of the t-shirt loop stacks together.


Step 11: repeat step 10 until your scarf is the length you want it!



All done! Wear it proudly, you look both classy and fun in this scarf. :) This is also a great way to make a t-shirt garland for special occasions--and it's so easy to clean because all you have to do is throw it in the wash!
