A simple method to make this is a V-neck tee that you like to use as a guide. Fold the shirt lengthwise in the middle, making sure the shoulders lie on each other. Lay it flat on a table. Then use a ruler to measure the distance from the point where the collar meets the shoulder of the school, to the top of the v. Write down this measure.
If you do not have a V-neck t-shirt, you need to estimate how deep your V should be. In this case, it is better to be restrained, since you can still make it deeper later.
You may want to try the shirt to estimate the depth of the V. Look in the mirror while you're wearing the shirt and mark the spot where you want to have the tip with a pin.

Fold your shirt with the round neck cutout in length. The front of the collar should be on the outside of the fold. Make sure that the neckline, shoulders and arms are exactly over each other. Lay it out on a table and smooth it until it is wrinkle-free.

Pull the V forward. Place a ruler down the middle of the breast in a diagonal line from the place where the shoulder of the school meets the collar. Using the measure you took in the previous step, highlight the top of the "Vs" with a textile marker. Then draw a line from the mark to the point where the shoulder meets the collar.
Turn the shirt around and repeat this step on the other side.
Separate the seams. Fold the shirt apart, turn it to the left and place it on the table. Make sure the front side is facing you. Then remove with a seam ripper the seams, which attach the front of the collar to the shirt.
If you do not have a seam ripper, you can cut it carefully with a sharp pair of scissors.
Hear at the shoulders. Leave the collar attached to the back of the shirt, unless you're not going to bring it back to your new neckline.

Smooth the shirt with the round neckline on the table. Make sure the collar is folded back, away from where you want to cut. [2] This guarantees the smoothest and straightest cuts and helps you avoid mistakes.
Cut out the V-neck. Start at one side of the V and cut with sharp scissors along the marked line. Stop when you reach the lower end. Repeat this process on the other side. Take care that you cut through the front of the shirt only.
If you do not want to create a lined collar, your new shirt is ready to be worn.
Cut the front of the severed collar in the middle. You must first determine where the center is. Lay the T-shirt flat with the front to you. Measure the width of the collar and make a dot in the center with your textile marker. Here you cut.
Stretch both sides of the cut collar along the sides of your V-neck. Most of the neckline t-shirts are ribbed and should yield several centimeters.
Put the edge of the collar on the shirt. Stretch one side at a time along the side of the V and stick it with the needles. Place the pins approximately every 2.5 cm to make sure the collar stretches and remains so until you sew it. [3] Do the same on the other side.
The non-edged edge of the collar should be applied to the untrimmed edge of the shirt with the edge of the collar facing the outside of the shirt.

Proximity from the upper end of the collar down to the lower end of the V. Approximately 0.6 cm from the edges of the two layers. [4] Pause just before you arrive at the V when you sew the second side of the collar down and near the end at the back of the first page. Finish by pressing the new hem with an iron.
Make sure the thread in your sewing machine matches the color of the shirt.
If you do not have a sewing machine, you can also sew the sides of the collar with the hand on the sides of the Vs.
