How to Upcycle a T-shirt into a Cardigan
By DIY Maven
Cal Patch over on Craftzine turned an oversized t-shirt into a feminine cardi. Yes, she did crochet the fancy new edging--which is another reason you should really learn how to crochet--but you could achieve a similar look by sewing on lacy edging. However, for the crochet version, you'll need....
- an oversized t-shirt
- tape measure
- thread
- scissors
- chalk
- buttons
- sock-weight yarn
- small crochet hook
For the entire tute, check out this page over on Craftzine.

Super cute! And the perfect lightweight material for those chilly spring days on the patio.
