.... I need a life. Interesting original project, created by me :)
This is a tutorial for a dress I made out of a turtuleneck. (Preferably for the small-boobed ;) ) This is also my first tutorial, so please feel free to leave comments on how bad I suck at this stuff XD

Pictures coming soon since Im too lazy to get off my iTouch. And if you are impatient well..... I guess you'll just have to suffer. Sucks for you! XD

    Step 1

    Step 1-

    Step 2

    Step 2-
    Cut off sleves, and make the two pieces of shirt into a decent square or triangular shape. (If you chose the triangular shape, cut it so that at the top you can fit it around your waist and the rest flares out from there.

    Now if your neck was too small, take of of the sleeves and use fabric from that to make the neck bigger/longer.
