  Step 1

  1. Iron your shirt if needed. Lay it out and cut off the sleeves, neck hem, and bottom hem as shown.

  2. Fold it in half length wise and start cutting your strips as indicated. As you move up the shirt, you may start getting shorter strips. Knot the ends to join them into a loop and add to your other strips.

  3. Once you've cut ally our strips, tug on them gently to stretch them out. At this point, you can braid together a few strips if you wish. Knot the ends together to form a loop.

  4. Braid the neck and bottom hems. Gather the strips at the seams and wrap the braided hems around it to hide the seams. Knot both ends together to secure. Trim ends.

  4. Gather the other side's seams together, wrap, and knot a scrap strip around it, covering the seams. Trim ends as needed

  Wrap and wear! I love how the coral color brings a bold pop to an otherwise boring outfit. I also love how lightweight but practical it is; it actually keeps your neck warm on those cooler autumn days!

I love this idea! This seems like a very straighforward tutorial.. I've seen some video ones that drag on and on and you lose interest because they are off talking about something completely different... I love the colour! I am going to the thrift store tomorrow as there is one near me that has all their clothes and linens for a $1 a piece.. Maybe I can find some shirts to use there! I really hope so! Then I will be using this tutorial!

Hi Penny, glad you like it! I try to simplify my projects as much as I can so no one will feel daunted by the number of steps. $1 fabrics sounds like a steal (super jealous); hope you discover some wonderful finds while thrifting tomorrow! Let me know if you have any further questions at all You can reach me via my blog Cafe Craftea or email cafecraftea@gmail.com. Happy crafting!

Thanks Vanessa T. Don't think I will have too much of a problem but if I do I won't hesitate to ask at all.
