Step 1Take an old pair of jeans and mark where you want the rips to be using a fabric pencil or fabric chalk. I wanted mine directly covering my knees so I drew a line above and below my knees.
-
Step 2Cut along your marks from one seam to the other.
-
Step 3Next, take the tweezers and pull each vertical thread, one by one. This part can be kind of tedious, but I always put on a good movie and have a glass of wine and I don't mind it at all!
-
Step 4This is what the rips will look like after pulling out all of the vertical threads. After that, just wash them and dry them then you're done!
