It's still snowing in Switzerland like it'll never end, so I thought NOW it's time for THAT project! Once I saw that shirt (grey one on the picture) in the net and thought "Wow, that's really cool! But... why buy, DIY!" So I tried.... although mine is not so colorful than the one on the picture, I'm really proud that I made it, because I'm really untalented with handling the sewing machine ;)

First prepare the stuff you need. That will be the things you see on the picture + a sewing machine.
Cut out the "glove" twice. Take care that you cut it on the right side of the fabric and check if the pattern looks like you want it to look. I had to check that the stripes are in the right direction.
Sew the edge of the fabric. That for, I took the "zig zag-stitch", I don't know if this is called the same in English :)
After sewing the edge, turn about 1 cm of the edge inwards and sew it with a straight stitch. This looks much better later on the shirt.
Then position the gloves on the right places where you want them on the shirt and sew them. Here I took again the "zig zag stitch".
Pull all the threads to the inside of the shirt, make a knot and cut them.
and that's it! Enjoy wearing it! :)
