Introduction: The T-Shirt Necklace
About "T-Shirt" Necklaces
We have been seeing these really fun T-shirt necklaces all over lately and we thought we needed to make our own version. Instead of a T-shirt though we used our new Light Jersey Circle Scarves, which gives a longer necklace and therefore a lot more options for the ways you can wear it. Plus, there's no need to cut up your favorite t-shirt!
Step 1: Let's Get Started!
Shopping list:
One (or two) dyed Circle Scarf in Light Jersey
Scissors or a Rotary fabric cutter
Ruler (totally optional, we didn't use one, but if you prefer more precise strips use one!)
Step 2: First Dye Your Scarf.
Check out the easy Bread Bag method (what we used for this tutorial)! For other dyeing techniques check here.
Step 3: Then Cut Your Scarf.
Fold your scarf at the seam and lay it out flat on a table.
Start cutting — Start from the unseamed end, Make 1” strips, cutting almost to the seam but not quite, the seam is what will hold everything together.
Step 4: Stretch It Out!
Once all the strips are cut take each strip one at a time and stretch it. This will cause the edges to curl in, hiding the cut edges.
Step 5: Lookin' Good!
Wear your new necklace/ scarf/ headband/ sash! Here are a few of our favorite options.
