Did you turn it around and print the other side on the back of the shirt?

That's not a Yeti, it's Sasquatch doing the Hokie Pokie!

As far as I can recollect:
"There's something Squatchy around here"

-Nice detailed vector

I am just overly embarrassed to confess.. but if you know how to do something and have learned to do it well is it not still an accomplishment.. I took a picture of the Yeti Statue on the porch of this restaurant with my phone.. Went home opened it in Photoshop.. screwed around to get it as good as I thought I could and then placed it in Illustrator and traced it.. Then I had to reverse it because he wanted it on black.. Then I touched, caressed and loved it until it looked like it would make a good transfer.. Sent it off to the transfer maker company and whamo.. They loved it.. On to the next project.

Pretty similar to my technique as well, except I don't bother to vectorize it, just save as a bitmap tiff and place it. I would do my reversing in Photoshop and same thing, bitmap tiff. Really don't need the extra million points...
