While most fringe T-shirts have the fringe tailing off the bottom, I
went with horizontal fringe on this one. The side fringe gives nice
movement and flow to the tee, and it's a great project for making a
slightly-too-big T-shirt into a just-right T-shirt. Add a touch of ombre
tie-dye, and it's a perfect summertime staple. Throw it over your
bathing suit, and head beachward!
What You Need:
-Plain T-shirt (one to two sizes larger than you'd ordinarily wear)
-Tulip One-Step Tie-Dye Kit (includes rubber bands, bottles, dyes, two pairs of plastic gloves, and an instruction/inspiration sheet)
-Plastic table cloth or plastic garbage bag to cover your work surface
-Paper towels
-Plastic cling wrap or zip-lock bags
-Scissors
-Sewing machine with thread or needle and thread
-Safety pins (optional)
Note: If you're working with new T-shirts, pre-wash and dry them to make sure any shrinking that's going to happen has happened!

Cut off the ends of the sleeves, the bottom hem, and the neckband. Cut about 2" wider than the neckband, but not deeper.
Mark and stitch about 3" in from each side of the shirt through both
layers. (I used safety pins to show the stitch path, since the thread
line is too faint. Using safety pins also helps keep the layers together
if you're stitching by hand).
Cut a small rectangular shape from the bottom of each of the sleeves as
shown. (The top cut should line up with the end of each stitch line.)
Cut vertically up both sides of the T-shirt to separate the back and
the front layers. Then cut 3/8"- to 1/2"-wide fringe up the side of the
shirt, stopping just shy of the stitch line (be careful that you don't
cut through!).
Cut fringe into the sleeves, too, stopping just shy of the shoulder
seam. Pull at all of the fringe pieces so they stretch out and separate.
Dampen the T-shirt fully, prepare the dyes, and lay down a plastic
surface to work on. To get the tie-dyed ombre look, accordion-fold the
shirt from the bottom to the top and wrap six rubber bands as shown.
Apply the dye liberally in sections, then wrap the tie-dyed T-shirt
in plastic wrap or a ziplock bag and let it sit overnight so the colors
set. Then unwrap it, rinse it thoroughly in the sink, let it dry and
it's ready to wear. (Make sure it's washed in its own laundry cycle the
first time you wash it!)
NOTE: You can make a no-sew version of this shirt by cutting
the fringe first and then knotting the front fringe piece with the
corresponding back fringe all the way up and down both sides (the
shoulder fringe remains unknotted). I like this version because it's
quick (particularly if you are using a sewing machine), and the fringe
pieces fall nicely without the bulk of the knots.
