Oh. My. Goodness. This is the best t-shirt yarn tutorial I've ever seen! Seriously! I will be sure to send anyone who asks me how I do it a link to this video because I'm terrible at explaining. Thanks!
You are a fantastic, clear, teacher! Love your voice...great trick w the bottle...more videos Plse. ! I could listen to all your videos ....some people are infuriatingly slow and repetitive ...you're a natural instructor ! Thank u
This is brilliant. Thanks for doing the legwork! Can't wait to start using up those old shirts!!! This will be perfect for my next afghan!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Good instruction. I learned from her about using a pill bottle to wrap the t-shirt yarn into a ball. Smart. So good to learn small useful tricks to make projects easier. Thank you.
My husband is about to loose a couple dozen t shirts....He doesn't need so many. :) I don't think I will care how greasy or stained they are either because I need a new rug, or two, or three.... lol. It's probably not a good thing that i saw this video. Thanks for the inspiration!
this is great! I just found yarn on the store shelves and bought it instantly now I'm gonna make my own from old/unwanted t-shirts and/or thrift store shirts for a much cheaper price.
Your video is clear and done nicely. There are lots of similar ones out there, I wouldn't bother to remake what you have done, but my only suggestion is perhaps use a better color than black just so it's a bit easier to see what you are doing when you do the cross-cut on the diagonal. Your setup, timing, lighting and clarity of sound were all great. If you make other videos, keep on keeping on with the same.
Wow! You taught me so much .Not only did I learn to make t shirt yarn, I learned about the pill bottle trick. I hate to chase a ball of yarn . Thank you so much for sharing.
Have a friend who is a super sewer and is needing to retire soon due to knee problems. This would certainly be something she could add to her home business! Thanks for the ideas! Sometimes its difficult to understand what someone is doing in a video but the way you explain what you're doing, along with the action, its as if you're sitting in the same room doing it together! Thanks! I'll be sending this to her :)
Nice video and very informative. I would like to see more of your videos. Note: Safety first. People should ALWAYS close the cover on rotary cutters to avoid accidental cuts to the hand.
Thank you for this tip on making a continuous t-shirt yarn ball. I bought lots of t-shirts last year at a Boy Scout rummage sale at a local church. I used the strips I made from the t-shirts to braid and make hair ties, wrist bands for Relay for Life. I bought about 20 t-shirts for $10. Also, garage sales are a great place to get t-shirts!!
Nice video. I especially liked the idea of using an old prescription bottle to wrap loose yarn with a center-pull. Also, your comments about considering the placement of prints/logos was helpful and a good tip.
Thanks Crystal...for the kind comment and the chuckle. You sound like me, on Pinterest. Thank goodness they have a "you pinned that already, dummy." warning now or my boards would be a mess! :}
This is a wonderful and useful tutorial. I want to get some cheap white T-shirts and dye them and try this on a knitting patter I have. Thanks so much!
I love this video!! Thank you!! I have tons of t-shirts I don't need or wear and I've been looking at buying yarn. It's expensive! And most of it is made from a variety of stuff so it may or may not be washable. I need new bathroom rugs. I'm going to use your wonderful video to make yarn and rugs with what I already own.
That's genius with the pillbottle (of course I'll have to go and buy a spin because pill bottles from our pharmacies are square..typical British lol...but the aspirin you get at convenience shops are shaped right lol! Thanks my cats are going to love you xx
Your adorable thanks so much for this awesome video and FF through the repetitive parts. Really great as I have a bunch of my DH white tshirts to do this technique with then dye awesome colors.
Great tutorial! I have been making this yarn for a long time, but I did the continuous strand a different way. Now, I am going to do it your way, it seems much easier! I also like the pill bottle idea! If only I had a pill bottle or something about that size!

...maybe not a good thing for your hubby! :) Have loads of fun.
Candace Zikpi My theory is they'll never notice. Pretty sure mine wouldn't. :)
Candace Zikpi same here! 😂😚😂
Make a sweater or just another tshirt
Did you make the rugs? I want an update lol
OMG! The pill bottle technique! Brilliant!
Wow that pill bottle technique was genious, I love it when I learn something new. Great video.
Best video I have found for explaining this technique, beginning to end. Thank you.
loved the pill bottle idea for the centre pull piece
this is great! I just found yarn on the store shelves and bought it instantly now I'm gonna make my own from
old/unwanted t-shirts and/or thrift store shirts for a much cheaper price.
and maybe even from bed sheets! thanks for this video!!
Just make sure the sheet you use is a knit not a woven sheet. Woven sheets will fray like crazy but knits won't. Have fun!
