DIY Twisted Headband

12:15 PM

I've seen these around so I thought it was time to figure out how to make one and show you guys! I saw something on Pinterest like this but it took me either to a dead end or a picture with no explanation, so here's what I did.

Measure around your head where the headband will be. Mine was 21". Cut out two rectangle pieces that length by 5", so mine were each 21" x 5". Use stretchy jersey knit fabric.

Fold hot dog style, and zig zag stitch down the side.

Pull them right side out.

Lay one on top of the other like a cross.

Fold over like so...

You don't want a raw edge to show, so put the ends together like this and pin into place.

Zig zag stitch the ends together.

All done!

Sisters Meg and Steph discovered that while living the life of poor, newlywed, college students, with fresh little babies in the middle of The Great Recession they could still have what they needed and wanted if they got to work and created things with their own hands. This mindset has saved them thousands of dollars in living expenses, and as they share their knowledge with others, the savings keeps growing.
