Easy DIY Tutorial: T-Shirt into an Infinity Scarf. girlinthegarage.net

1. Find an old t-shirt in your closet or head to Goodwill and buy one for a few dollars. (Larger sizes and longer shirts work best.)

2. For sizing, I grabbed an infinity scarf that I already own and laid it over the shirt before cutting. The width is 14 inches.

4. I flipped the pieces so that the “good” sides (outside of shirt) were facing each other and then ran my sewing machine across the top and bottom edges. The longer edges are left unfinished just like the store-bought scarf I used as inspiration.

For the no-sew version – there is no cord and we will be stapling and using fabric adhesive. Since I always try to find the thrifty way to complete my Decorating projects and didn’t want to spend $$$ on fabric, I went shopping in my friend Karen’s attic. Every one needs a resource like Karen – Thanks Karen xo. She has a professional workroom in her home where she makes all sorts of home decorator treatments for hundreds of clients.
