Backpack camping deep into the woods calls for packing light. I whipped up two mini pillows from one adult medium sized t-shirt to be hooked to backpacks with a carabiner. You don't have to be a camper to appreciate a neck pillow in the car or airplane. So make a few of your own, hook up to your bag, and get exploring already!

Step 1: Select a t-shirt. I cut a large rectangle that included the logo. Keep the neckline intact.
Step 2: Trim around the neckline and then cut it in half. This will be your loop for two pillows, since it is very sturdy.
Step 3: Turn rectangles inside out. Place loop facing inward near one of the corners.
Step 4: Starting with the corner near the loop, sew around the entire rectangle leaving about 4-5 inches.
Step 5: Turn the pillow right side out and stuff it to your liking.
Step 6: Sew the rest of the pillow closed. Hook the loop to a carabiner or keychain and clip to your bag. Happy camping!
