Online tutorials are awesome, but it’s always interesting to try a new technique for the first time. I wanted to see for myself how to make t-shirt yarn.
It looked easy enough online, but I did run into
some difficulty. Sharp scissors are a must. The best method would be to use a rotary cutter and ruler to get a really consistant yarn gauge.
Here is a slideshow of my first attempt.
The finished product, should look similar to this:
