  Step 1

  Select two old t-shirts.

• 

  Step 2

  Cut the T-shirts into strips. I made mine 8" wide, but you can use any width you want. Also, I cut my strips horizontally to highlight the t-shirt's designs, but cutting vertically will work just as well.

• 

  Step 3

  Select two strips to begin with...

• 

  Step 4

  and pin them right side together on one of the short sides.

• 

  Step 5

  Sew along the side you pinned.

• 

  Step 6

  Keep repeating this process until you have two pieces that are the length that you want the scarf to be when it is finished.

• 

  Step 7

  With right sides facing each other, pin the long sides of the two pieces together and sew, making sure to leave the ends open.

• 

  Step 8

  Turn the scarf right side out and stitch the ends closed about two inches from the bottom. In this photo, my pieces are two different lengths. I cut the green piece to even them up after I sewed the end shut. No worries!

• 

  Step 9

  Make fringe at the end simply by cutting slits with your scissors.

  Congrats. You're done! Wear and enjoy!

I have made a couple of scarves, but mine leave a lot of lint like stuff on my clothes and where I'm making them. How do I stop that
