Cut Off Sleeves
First, cut off the sleeves of a long-sleeve T-shirt.
Lay Sleeves Flat
Now, cut along the seams and lay the sleeves out flat.
Mitten Length
Find a good length for your mittens, and cut off the extra fabric.
Extra Fabric
Now, cut another piece of fabric about the size of the width of the sleeves, and cut a few strips.
Sew on the Strips
Pin the strips to the sleeves, and sew them on!
Sew the Sleeve Together
Next, have a friend wrap the sleeve (inside out) around your arm and pin it together; then sew.
Cut Off the Extra Fabric
Cut off the extra fabric after sewing.
Thumbs
Turn the mittens inside out again, cut thumb holes, and you're finished!
