Fun with tshirt transfers

At a Stitch n' Bitch a few weeks ago one of the members brought in a ball of yarn with the funkiest little retro illustration on the ball band of a baby alpaca. Another member suggested that this would make a great tshirt. I brought it home, blew up the illustration and fixed it up with Photoshop.

Today I finally got round to buying transfer paper and doing my first tshirt transfer! I love it [and fellow SnBers I have a couple of transfers left - 1 for Anika, if anyone wants the other I'll bring it along on Tuesday]

Thanks :)
I just bought the paper from PC World - it goes through inkjet printers then it's a transfer - how cool is that?!

It's been 24 hours since I did it so now I have to wash it inside for the final 'fix' - hopefully it'll work and I'll have a new addiction!
