How to make a large t-shirt fitted with lacing

This is my first video on how to make a large t-shirt into a nice fitted one using a lacing method.

Easy to do and will take about 5-10 mins to do and there is no sewing for this t-shirt recon.

Needed:
1. Large tee
2. Scissors
3. Ribbon, thread, wool etc. (optional)

Enjoy!

P.S. Apologies about the quality, my next ones will be much better I promise!

i'm a size S. will this work with an XL men's size?

[dodgyredhead]

@silentchatterbox90 Yes :) this is an just what this is all about, as long as you measure yourself and if you love this particular shirt I'll advise practising on a tshirt you dont mind ruining.

Will this still work with a collard shirt?

[dodgyredhead]

@cupcakegall5565 I dont see why not, give it a go on a collard t shirt that you dont want anymore and see how it works. But honestly I dont see why it wouldn't work. Let us know how its comes out :)

hhm if you wash, in general a ripped shirt,what will happen??

[dodgyredhead]

@ArtistWoOoOo if you just put it in the wash its likely to tear. its best to hand wash, wash on delicates if you can or pup it in a small net bag if you have one then put it in the wash to keep it together

Thank you so much! I'm making my own shirt for my homecoming rally next week. This will definitely add the pizzazz I was looking for!
