Never Throw Away a Tshirt

 Why?

Because...

You can make excellent cleaning rags from them, no hemming required. They are especially good for dusting.

You can use them in place of tissues for colds and allergies. They wash well and again, no hemming required

They're great for braiding, knitting or  crocheting anything from floor rigs to bath mats to chair mats. 

They are ultimately washable and reusable. They are economic and planet saving when you reuse them. 

There are other ways:

Layer, quilt and make handbags, shopping bags or laundry bags.

They make excellent coveralls for kids when they are into messy projects like painting.

Cut the back out, put some yarn through the sleeves and you have an emergency tie on apron.

 If, after all this, you decide you really don't want to keep them, see if someone else wants them. You might want to give them this list of uses first or they will think you are trying to give away trash. ;)

  1. I buy extra large tee shirts from thrift stores when on sale and make underpants out of them.
