How to do it
1 Make a 30-40 cm knitted tube on the knitting mill. Follow the instructions on the packaging of the knitting mill or see the video. One ball of wool gives 13 metres of knitted tube.
2 Pick up the four stitches at one end of the knitted tube using a yarn needle as shown in the photo. Feed the wool through the four stitches and secure.
Feed the yarn needle with the treaded wool back inside the knitted tube.
3 Sew the two ends of the knitted tube together to form a circle.
4 Make a flower shape with, for example, five petals by feeding the yarn needle with the yarn through a stitch in the knitted tube in five different places. Pull and tighten to make the petals.
5 Sew together to secure and sew on the button.
6 Sew the flower onto the hair band and secure the end.
