My husband supported the Veronica Mars movie through Kickstarter and
part of that meant he got a t-shirt. He didn't want it, so he handed it
over to me.
This will be a quick overview of how I made this t-shirt into a scarf.
I thought the fabric was very thin and just not a very
good quality t-shirt. I looked at the design and figured it would make a
simple scarf.
First I trimmed off the top of the shirt as close to the sleeve seams as possible. I smoothed the shirt as best I could with the bottom hem lined up. I lost a little of the screen print, but I don't mind.
I did a quick press on the cut edge and stitched it with a wide cover-stitch to match the existing hem.
Wear it as a single loop.
Wear it doubled up for a tighter scarf.
One cut and a pass through the serger and I've got a simple scarf with some interesting
graphic details.
Very cool!! I'm not sure I could let go of the Mars shirt, but if you're gonna, this is the way to do it! :)
