Step 1 of 9

You will need: A large T-shirt A pair of fabric scissors(you can use regular scissors but I think fabric scissors are easier to use) And a piece of paper of something flat

Step 2 of 9

Start by cutting off the sleeves... I marked mine so it was easier to see :) and I didn't like the way it fit with only the sleeve cut off so I decided to cut off more

Step 3 of 9

After you cut off both the sleeves it should look some what close to this or exactly like this

Step 4 of 9

(OPTIONAL but I think it looks better like this) Cut the collar off your shirt

Step 5 of 9

Next cut the shirt but don't cut it to fit you PERFECT because its going to get shorter in the next step!

Step 6 of 9

Then cut the sides so you can fold the shirt like this. After that cut off the excess material on the back which you see in this picture

Step 7 of 9

You're almost done! Fold the shirt in half then put the paper under it so you know where to cut or mark it

Step 8 of 9

Cut the long front part in half then into triangles.

Step 9 of 9

Then tie the front into a knott and you're done! And I know my shorts I kinda weird but they are my PJ shorts. PS: Malia don't make fun of me for this ok?!

You're Done
