How to Make a Snood Hair Net

Step by Step Procedure: How to Make a Snood Hair Net

Step 1: Cut a Piece of Fabric.

The size of the fabric you will need depends on the size of your head. For a standard size, cut a piece of fabric 18 inches by 36 inches. If you have a larger head, you may need to cut a larger piece of fabric. Cut your fabric into four pieces. Fold each piece in half lengthwise and sew the long sides together.

Step 2: Hem the Edges.

Fold the edges of the fabric over 1/4 inch and then fold the fabric over again 1/4 inch. Sew the hemmed edges in place using a sewing machine or by hand. Repeat this process for the bottom and sides of the window treatments. Slide the cornice box over the top of the curtains. Attach the cornice box to the wall above the windows using screws. Insert a screw at either end of the cornice box.

Step 3: Cut Thread Loops.

Cut thread loops about 1 inch long on both the short and long sides of the fabric. Make sure to space the loops evenly. You will need about 24 loops on each side.

Use the Needle

Step 4: Knot the Thread Loops.

To make a fishing net, take a long piece of string and tie it to another string at regular intervals. Then, tie those loops together in a knot. Repeat this process across the fabric, making sure not to tie the knots too tight. When you’re finished, you should have a net that you can put over your head.

Step 5: Trim the Edges.

If necessary, trim the edges of the fabric so that they are even. Be careful not to cut off too much of the thread loops.

Step 6: Put the Fabric on Your Head.

Put the fabric over your head and stretch it so that the loops are facing the front of your head. Make sure the fabric isn’t too tight, or it will be uncomfortable to wear. You can also use a bobby pin or hair clip to hold the fabric in place. Tie the fabric in a knot at the back of your head.

Use Cotton Rope

Step 7: Tie the Knots.

Tighten all of the knots by pulling on each one until they are all snug against your head. Make sure not to pull too hard, or you may have a headache! You can also use a bit of hair spray to keep the net in place. Enjoy your new snood hair net!

Things to Keep in Mind While Performing the Task

Needle

Knitting a snood is quite easy, but there is the incorporation of the needle in this process, which is quite harmful to the fingers if you are not well aware of the needle while using it. The sharp edge can easily pierce your finger for the slightest of insincerity. For this reason, you maintain proper safety while performing the crochet.

Things to Keep in Mind

Incorporation of the Needle:

Knitting a snood is quite easy, but incorporating the needle in this process is quite harmful to the fingers if you are not well aware of the needle while using it. Furthermore, the sharp edge can easily pierce your finger for the slightest insincerity. For this reason, you maintain proper safety while performing the crochet.

Holding the Yarn:

Another important thing that you need to take care of is the holding of the yarn. Make sure that it is not too tight or too loose while knitting, as it would only make the process difficult for you and create uneven stitches in your net.

Checking the Size:

It is also important that you check the net size that you are knitting. This would help you determine the number of stitches you need to make and how big or small your snood should be.

Beginning the Stitch:

Once you have determined all these things, you can finally begin the stitch by taking a loop of yarn from the ball and placing it on the needle. You then knit this loop through the back of the next stitch on the needle. This is how you begin the knitting process.

Bringing the Yarn Forward:

Now, take the right-hand needle and bring it in front of the left-hand needle. This would take the yarn currently in the back of the work and bring it to the front. You then make a knit stitch with this yarn.

Taking the Yarn Back:

Now, take the yarn at the front of the work and put it in the back. This can be easily done by passing the right-hand needle between the two needles from front to back. You then make a knit stitch with this yarn. You continue this process until you have completed the net. Again, make sure that you keep a tight grip on the stitches so that they do not come undone.

FAQs

Can the crochet be made multi-colored?

For making a multi-colored snood, you need to have more than one color of yarn. This will help you to make the snood more aesthetic. For this, you have to complete the knitting with one thread and then add a new ball of yarn of different colors at the endpoint where you have left the last thread. In this manner, you can keep on adding new color yarn to your snood.
