To start with, you need a t-shirt (this one is an XL), pair of scissors, a ruler and a pen.
Step One
Turn your t-shirt inside out and fold your t-shirt in half and cut off the neck. This was my initial cut but I went in after and went a little deeper on the backside. Make sure you are not cutting into your t-shirt design if you want to preserve it.
Step Two
Cut off each of the sleeves.
Step Three
Mark a line on the inside of your t-shirt where you want the bottom of your bag to be.
Step Four
Cut fringe up to the line, about 1/2 inch wide. When you reach the side of the shirt, split the end so there are two separate pieces.
Step Five
First, tie the front and back pieces in a double knot all the way across the bottom. Second, go back through and use one tie from each section to double knot it to the knot next to it. This will close any holes in between the sections. Take a look inside your bag to make sure you didn't miss any spots and there are no openings. If there are, just tie another double knot in that section.
Step Six
Trim off the excess. Another option would be to tie the fringe with your t-shirt right side out and have the fringe hang from the bottom. I used one piece of the scrap fringe to cinch the top of each strap.
