DIY Knotted Headband Tutorial

Hey there! I’m Jess from Sallie Tomato. Today, we’re getting crafty! We are going to make a simple and stylish no-sew or low-sew hair accessory!

The knotted headband is everywhere right now and we are excited to show you how to make your own! This project has a comfortable design and concealed raw edges. 

You can use this pattern on different headband sizes, and use nearly any fabric, to truly make a knotted headband that fits your style - or perhaps even an entire collection of knotted headbands to coordinate with any outfit or any occasion! 

This project is suitable for lite faux leather, faux fur, quilt cotton, canvas, flannel, knit, sequins, velveteen, denim or linen. This is also a great pattern to incorporate scraps or upcycled fabrics. Choose to use a headband that is between 1” wide and 2” wide. 

This project includes a no-sew option as well as a low-sew option, but either way, you’ll need some hot glue and your hot glue gun to create this accessory.
