T-shirts morph ...

...into a bath-mat ... hopefully
 

I am using a 10 mm crochet hook and making half double crochet stitches

10 mm Häkelnadel und halbe Stäbchen.

The inner green circle is indeed a T-shirt -


However --- I admit
the next photo is showing an uncut fabric not a T-shirt -
it is a piece of fabric which I bought at least 20 years ago
and cutting this is very fast - but I had to join the strips
which were about 60 cm long.
 
 
I am increasing when it seams to be necessary - the circle must be
nicely round and flat
see my ball of cut and wrapped jersey fabric strips
--------------
And this is how I joined the strips in the beginning.
 

Then I became clever and joined the leftover piece of fabric

with zig-zag stitches and cut it into strips afterwards.

Which is a much faster method

At present I ran out of strips and have to search for more old tees -

on DH's side of the wardrobe !!!
