Note: it will most likely roll on the wrong side so make sure your t-shirt is a little nice inside as well. The strips will still be joined by the other seam. Here is the principle of loops: I adjusted the loops Important step! Measure your head. The t-shirts will stretch so be sure to get it snug To bind the set, you will need either to glue them for those who have two left for a neater finish. Take a strip, fold and glue
