DIY T-Shirt From Old Socks

Dealing with stretchy knit fabric can be intimidating when you are only familiar with sewing non-stretchy woven fabric. This sewing tutorial is super easy and fool-proof due to exposed seams.

So, don’t be afraid and have fun making lettuce ruffle helming along the seams and hemline. Experience the joy as you design your own t-shirt made from socks!

This was a process on me attaching on the sleeve on my top by overlocking the arm hole before sewing it on by a 1 cm distance.I used the overlocker to finish this area off.

Making the Toile

Step 6: Constructing the sleeve

For constructing the sleeve, I placed my front and back sleeves together and sewed the outer seam, right sides together, from the top middle notch all the way down to the bottom. I stitched the inner seam, below the arm hole, which was the last notch down, all the way to the bottom. After this, I overlocked both side seams, the top seam and bottom seam. Then stitched a 0.5cm hem (like the trousers) at the top and the bottom of the sleeve. Next, to make sure the sleeve wouldn’t fall off the shoulder, I added a 13cm piece of elastic to the top sleeve hem and sewed a straight stitch to secure it, stretching whilst I stitched along, making sure the outer sleeve seam is in the middle of stretched elastic when sewn.

Step 4: Sewing the trousers together

For the first part of stitching the trousers together, I sewed all the way down the inside leg seam and did the same with the other leg. Then, I overlocked these seams. To secure the crutch, I went back on the industrial lockstitch and folded one leg the right way round, the other inside out and set the right-side leg into the inside out leg and matched crutch notches up. I then sewed from the zip to the end with a one toe zipper foot, making sure not to sew over the zip’s teeth. I finished off with overlocking all the way around both the bottom of the trouser legs, folding up 0.5 cm and sewing a straight stitch all the way around.

Today in class I just crispt up my edges on my garment by trimming the rough edges off.
