Every guy has that awful t-shirt full of holes and stains that still holds so much sentimental value, even the mere suggestion they get rid of it makes you public enemy number one. Then there are the shirts that sit at the bottom of his drawer, unworn and (mostly) forgotten, but could hold loads of potential for updating a girl's wardrobe.
Let's face it, many women aren't all that interested in going on a public outing wearing a baggy Green Bay Packers tee that their significant other/brother/friend has lost interest in, but a few easy transformations can turn something oversized and unappealing into the perfect shirt for hanging out a pub or attending a local sporting event. Check out the first couple of steps below and then hit the jump to find out to to make a boat-neck shirt that may just become your own comfy favorite you can't bear to part with.
Intro: Refashioned Beefy Tee into Boat Neck Top
In this project we'll show you how to refashion a man's tee into a boat neck top with cap sleeves and a fitted waistband. (Please be sure to check with your beau before snaking his shirt for this project!)
It's that time of year again, when baseball fans get excited because spring training is under way and a new season is about to begin. Oh boy! Part of the fun of going to baseball games (aside from the hot dogs, peanuts, and ice cold beverages of course) is rooting for your home team. And clearly, rooting for your home team involves wearing the right outfit. Clearly.
If you're a baseball fan (or hang out with one that plies you with icy cold beverages to get you to watch the game) you know that team shirts are usually big, boxy and not flattering on us gals. (There are girl versions that come in pink and fit like a baby doll tee from the nineties. No thanks, we'll make our own!)
Step 1: Cut from the team
Start by cutting off the bottom of the shirt, about 1.5 inches above the hem. Hold onto this part as it will become your boat neck collar.
