This project explores ways to repurpose unused t-shirts into something new. I used the method of crochet to transform the t-shirts into a picnic basket. A large percentage of garments which are donated ends up in landfill. This inspired me to find a way to make use of this garment and create something useful from it, rather than contributing further to textile waste. This way, I am using up existing material instead of working with new materials.
