From a worn out undershirt

Inspired by the wonderful instructions and video at Upcycle Stitches, I made my first zokin (cleaning cloth) from scraps of tshirt fabric:

It's so handy and a pleasure to use, so I wanted to make some more.  I also had a worn out undershirt in the mending box, so decided to make a produce bag from some of the tshirt, and zokin from other parts of the shirt.  So first I cut off the fabric for the produce bag:

Then I folded the bottom piece along the long edge, and pinned two sides to sew together, to make a double-sided bag; since the fabric is a stretchy, cotton knit, I wanted two layers of fabric for the bag sides so it wouldn't stretch out too much (and possibly tear) when filled with produce.  The bottom of the tshirt became the top of the bag--the finished edges were easy to fold down and secure with a buttonhole stitch to make a channel for a drawstring (a piece of leftover ribbon).  I then weighed the bag, and used a laundry marker to write the bag's tare weight on it:

Then I cut off the sleeves, and put those in my "stuffing bag"--a bag of small fabric and yarn scraps that can be used for stuffing for stuffed animals, toys, etc.  I then cut the remaining top of the tshirt in half vertically:

I pinned the two remaining pieces of the top together (wrong sides facing), on three sides, to close up and sew up the seams, before turning it right side out and sewing with running stitches to make into a zokin:

They are irregularly shaped, but they work great!
