This is one of the fastest projects ever. In
short, the instructions go like this: cut a front
and back of a hat from the bottom portion of a
t-shirt and sew them together. For those who need
more details than that, here's the tutorial.
!! Steps !!
* Select an appropriate t-shirt. Choose one
that you no longer want to wear or that's tighter than you've been
willing to admit for a while.
Fold the t-shirt in half length-wise to save
cutting time. If your scissors are not sharp
enough, you might not be able to do this, so
borrow your neighbor's if that's the case.
Outline half of a rabbit's head shape along
the fold (use the image example as a template
– click to enlarge).
* The bottom hem will become the hem of your hat. Make the hem
about 7″ (18cm) wide, so 3.5″ (9cm) from the fold ought to do
it.
* Cut along the line you've drawn. See what
you've got – two rabbit shaped pieces that form the front and
back of the newborn's hat.
* Pin the right sides together. Sew into
place. Perfect symmetry is not critical because you'll be tying
the rabbit ears into a knot.
After sewing, turn right side out and you're
done! A little zig-zag stitch along the bottom
would be a nice finishing touch.
* For a super-cute gift, make a matching pair of pants out of the
sleeves of the same shirt.
