How to DIY a Tank Top

Start by cutting one armhole from the pit to the neck, then take the armhole and lay it on the other side and repeat the same cut. This is to make sure your armholes match.

After that, just pull on the fabric so it rolls under and gives your tank a finished look.

If you want to rock the muscle-T vibe then you can leave it how it is, but if you’re going for more of a racer-back chic look then take one of the sleeves and cut a long piece of fabric.

From here, gather the back of the shirt at the neck and tie the piece of fabric around it.
