Great idea to revamp old t-shirts. 😊

Now i know what to do with my now too small Pink Floyd shirt (due to weight gain due to new Medication). Thank you. 😊

Love it!! So cute! I wonder if it would work on shirts that are like 3 sizes too small? My dad inherited all of his dads ol$ vintage tshirts, but my grandfather was smaller then us. That would be cool if it would work. Lol

[@AnnasKitchenAndStitchin]

Thanks! They are so much fun to make, and I think using your grandfather's vintage shirts is a great way to keep his memory with you. I find these would fit anyone from a Medium to a 2XL and maybe even larger. So I think it's okay if the t-shirt is smaller but you might need a larger scarf then. This particular one was a very large scarf so the end result comes all the way down to the middle of my hand. When I use smaller scarves they tend to be short sleeved as they only come a bit past my elbow. I actually like that length in summer as it's cooler to wear.

Do you have a video or picture of a shorter “sleeved” version? Thanks for the great video.

[@AnnasKitchenAndStitchin]

Not my creation, but here is a good short sleeve example. mountaingirlclothing.com/cdn/shop/files/A1E73042-F3C4-4967-87D4-E093B7456D67.jpg?v=1729870307

How big is the scarf? What are the measurements? Great video, the only one on youtube right now. Thank you!

[@AnnasKitchenAndStitchin]

Thanks so much! They are all different. I would suggest you fold the scarf in half find the middle and hold that up near the inside of your shoulder. That will give you an idea of how far down your arm the scarf will hang if you make it into a poncho. But even if it comes down longer than you like, that is no problem. You don't have to cut it exactly in half. If you wanted it 3 inches shorter you could cut out a six inch section from the middle and that would shorten each of the sides by 3 in. Just remember you're going to lose a quarter to half an inch in your seam allowance so allow for that.

So cute, how wide were your scarfs?

[@AnnasKitchenAndStitchin]

The scarf for the Pink Floyd poncho would have been about 116.5 cm or 46" wide. The final poncho sleeve comes about to the middle of my hand. I have some that come a few inches above the wrist, and others that fall at or below the elbow. If the scarf you love is very narrow you will have shorter sleeves. If you had two narrow scarves, you can just put one on each side. If it's 2" too wide, then instead of cutting it down the middle you could cut an inch on either side of the middle. You can also sew pieces of any fabric together patchwork style. That's one thing I love about upcycling -- you're the artist, create whatever you want.

@@AnnasKitchenAndStitchin Thank you!

[@miadesanto146]

I’m a little confused about the sleeve part. Once we have the scarf sewn on to the tshirt I think I lost a step 😅

[@AnnasKitchenAndStitchin]

The last step is to add the side stitches that form the sleeve, or arm hole. If you didn't want to do that you might have to wear something under it as the sides will be open. I chose to put the stitches about 5-1/2 inches in from the outside edge, but you can put them right on the edge if you prefer. I started about 9 inches down from the top to leave a wide arm opening.
