Description

I cut up an old pair of khaki pants into strips and crocheted it . I love this project because I am able to reuse fabric and I really love the headbands. They are sturdy and lookgreat. I used the pants seams as ties on the back. I have made 4 already and I cant wait to try making a one out old shorts too.

Material Notes

old cotton khaki pants

    Very nice and I love the “not-quite-neat” look of them! I want some for myself now – my hair is so unruly sometimes!!! :-)

      Thanks almatinka. They are a quick pretty easy project to do and a good way to reuse.

      You are welcome! And I wish they were that easy for me – alas, I don’t knit or crochet at all. ;-)
