Free pattern: Vintage style headband ties

Sew4Home shares a free pattern for making these vintage style headband ties. They’re shaped just right, so they narrow at the point where the knot gets tied. Their dimensions will make one to fit a head with 22″ circumference, but it’s easy enough to adjust to fit any size head. They’re made with strips of fabric just 3.75″ wide, which you may have in your scrap bin. If you make it with different fabrics on the front and back, it’ll be reversible.
