Headwear is a pain in summer, it takes a certain amount of confidence to walk around bald ( sometimes I can, sometimes I don't want to) wigs are too hot in summer and scarves can do all sorts of unpredictable things. I've found myself looking like a deranged Jack Sparrow with a scarf at an odd angle and unmatched earrings.
Anyway, in desperation I ended up ordering a batch of different self tied scarves from the US. They were not cheap.The main motivation was to figure out how they were made. This pattern is my fave, it's basically a ribbing hat with a tube of fabric attached. So comfy and it even works under a motorbike helmet. Takes me about 20 mins to make and the ribbing is the most expensive bit. Op shop scarves work very well for the 'tail'.
Excuse my selfie skills, a Kardashian I ain't. I'll post the pattern when I figure out the best way to do that.
