Refashion T-shirt to Shrug

Sometimes, I'm so very grateful that I'm able to sew.
This must be one of the easiest t-shirt refashion, but it so very gratifying.

This is another t-shirt given to me by a friend. It is soft and lovely, but it is also white (impractical) and has a mock turtleneck (uncomfortable).


Basically, use a scissors to straight up the front, cut off the collar, make a casing up the front, around the neck and down front the other side. OK, ok, that is a bad explanation.

Go to Cut Out + Keep for the real tutorial. So simple and elegant!



Now go find a t-shirt to cut up!

I checked out the site you mentioned and yours is by far the cutest version of this refash! I can't wait to have time to make some of these things...

Not only are mock turtlenecks uncomfortable, they're hideous too! I have unreasonable anger about them. What a great refashion!
