DIY No-Sew Infinity Scarf

*Update: I realized I forgot to post pictures of my finished product! Here they are:

I promise not to wear this shirt with it.

perfect for the rain!

Girl shirts, though soft, are incredibly thin and flimsy. Almost every single one of my t-shirts ends up with a constellation of tiny holes right near my belly button. Instead of simply throwing them out, I decided to recycle them into scarves.

All I did was:

1. Select two holey t-shirts from my closest

2. Cut the tops of them off, right under the ‘pits

like so

I could have stopped there, because I had two tubes (two infinity scarves!), but I continued:

3. Knot the tubes together (get creative!)

4. Zhush (my new favorite word) the knot a little bit to look pretty

And that’s it!

Other ideas (since I’m obviously not the first to do this):

• Add a fringe by cutting little strips into your scarf. You could even knot beads to the ends! (Camp-style)
• Add a brooch (or hair clip)
• Dye it.
• Shred it.
• Stack ‘em.
• Bop it.

Any other ideas?
