No Sew Skirt from Shirt

.

This is the lazy persons guide to making a quick simple skirt. All you need is a t-shirt, scissors and a string (from an old hoodie or pyjama bottoms or a long shoe-lace)

Get a shirt that is a bit loose.

.

Cut it straight across under the arm-pits. (can make it ever shorter later if you're that way inclined).

Turn the piece you've cut upside down.

.

.

cut two holes in the hem (big enough for the string to pass through).

Thread the string through one hole out the other (with the help of a safety pin)

.

The hem that was the bottom of the shirt is now the top of the skirt.

This will hold the skirt up, once tied. 

.

.

et voila! This took all of about 5 minutes. 

You may need to stretch out the bottom slightly if you don't like it too clingy. Use a printed 

shirt for more interest, but the print will be upside down, be warned! Or you can sew a hem on the 

other end, if you can be bothered getting the machine out and threading it and such...

...Or just make yourself some tea.
