Step 1:
Cut off hem.
cut shirt into wides strips horizontally.

Step 2:
Stretch them out

Step 3:
Take 2 loops put together.
Take 2 more loops, put together.
attach these together. 

Step 4:
Braid both sides. 
To finish off braid, loop the ends around each other to form a type of knot. 



Step 5:
To each end of these attach another loop.

To the end of one of these loops, attach 2 more loops.
Braid this. 


Step 6:
Take the hem that was cut off, cut it so it is in a strip, not a loops.
tie this around both ends to connect your scarf into a loop.
