  Step 1

  Get your supplies.

  Scissors
  Knitting needle
  Yarn ((i use lion brand))
  Smallest Knifty Knitter Loom ((peach))
  Knitting hook

• 

  Step 2

  Start off by wrapping a good three inches around your knitting notch.

  Loop all the way around your loom til you get back to the notch.

• 

  Step 3

  Slide your yarn half way down your pegs.

• 

  Step 4

  Repeat step 2 then wind your attached string around your notch.

• 

  Step 5

  Hook your yarn to the right of the notch and flip over the top of the peg and repeat until you've come full circle. Repeat steps 2-5. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.

• 

  Step 6

  Once your product is even with the bottom of the loom, unhook the yarn on your notch and let it dangle.

• 

  Step 7

  Once you've made a good three inches.. Turn over your loom ((it's easiest to do on a flat surface)).

• 

  Step 8

  Cut your dangling thread ((NOT YOUR THREAD THAT'S ATTACHED TO YOUR YARN BALL)) so you can thread it through your knitting needle.

• 

  Step 9

  Thread through all top row and sinch as you go along.

• 

  Step 10

  Sinch completely and knot off twice.

• 

  Step 11

  Resume knitting until you've reached your desired length ((mine is more scrunchy, so until you can fold it to meet the ends comfortably, but you can go however long you want)).

• 

  Step 12

  GENTLY turn your product inside out so it's coming out of the top of the loom instead of the bottom ((this is so we have a nice round top)).

• 

  Step 13

  Wrap your attached yarn around your loom 1.5 times ((so you have a nice length to work with)) and cut. Thread your needle.

• 

  Step 14

  Start with the peg to the right of your notch and hook your needle under the yarn and slide it onto your needle, lifting it off of the peg. Repeat til you have come full circle.

• 

  Step 15

  Sinch and knot twice. Lay out flat so all the pattern is going in the same direction.

• 

  Step 16

  Keeping the string intact, thread through the opposite end of your bow. Pull tight.

• 

  Step 17

  Center your bow. Thread to the front of the bow ((pick a nice loop to go to the right of and go back down to the left of)). Pull tight.

• 

  Step 18

  Come up to the left of your favorite loop and back down on the right of the same loop. Pull tight and knot twice. Cut thread.

• 

  Step 19

  With your ball of yarn, take a good five inches ((still attached)) and center it, with a good five inches on one side, in the middle front of your bow. Flip over and tie tight.

• 

  Step 20

  Keeping your loose yarn to the left of the bow, wind ((with front of bow in view)) around your bow. Make it as thick or thin as you like. Flip over and double knot.

  AND THERE'S YOUR BOW

• 

  Step 21

  You can attach these to headbands, hats, or clips. I've got a few options for you.

• 

  Step 22

  For a hair clip, LAZY VERSION, I've taken a 1.75" snap clip and just put it through a couple of the strings in the back.

• 

  Step 23

  For a hair clip, NOT SO LAZY VERSION, I've taken a 1.75" snap clip and put it through a couple of the strings in the back and sew both the bottom and top to the bow.

• 

  Step 24

  Or for a bowtie, i just slipped an alligator clip through some of the strings.
