In this tutorial, I'm going to walk you through making my pony tail scrub cap, it's based on my long hair scrub cap, but then it has a lot more room in the back for long hair and it also ties like the ponytail style that some of you Have asked for you know if you want to keep seeing videos if you like these tutorials, I would ask that you subscribe, so that I know that there's people out there interested that want to see more. Your subscriptions remind me to get behind the camera and do some more tutorials. So I would appreciate, if you let me know, to keep going by subscribing the supplies that you will need are sewing machine fabric scissors and thread color of your choice about a half a yard of fabric that is 41 inches wide four inches of elastic. That'S a quarter inch wide or anything that you have handy. A safety pin the pattern pieces that I provide for you in the description below by clicking on the link and an overlock or serger machine which is optional. You can also just use a zig zag stitch on your regular sewing machine sew. The two pattern pieces that you need are the cap side and the cap top now. These are modifications from my long hair cap, like I said before, and you can find the video to that one in the description below. If you want a cap that does accommodate long hair, but it's not the ponytail style. You will also need to cut a strip of fabric that is two and a half inches tall by the whole width of your fabric and I'll show you that in a little bit before we keep going, I want to take a moment to explain to you how My pattern is different from others that I found online and why I think you should keep watching if you're interested in making one of these caps. First of all, I did find a lot of pattern. This top end in a point is short, but mine actually elongates. The top so that you get a softer round - and I also found one tutorial - that used a circle for the cap, top pattern piece, but I prefer the oval shape because it eliminates some of the bulk in the fabric along the sides. I also saw some patterns. I just had a long strip which added actually a lot of bulk here at the center or you tie it in the back. But I did reduce the amount of fabric here which again makes for less bulk when you go to tie your ponytail every single notch. In this pattern is important, and I want to take the time also to explain that now, let's start with a cap side, this is going to be the fold, so this will be your center front and this will go towards the side and then this year will Be the back seam of your cap now it is very important to mark the top and bottom of your cap side to notch it there so that you know exactly where the center front is, and you can align it both to your headband tie, which goes at The bottom and to your cap top right here so definitely put those two. This match right here will mark where it is that the cap side starts to curve. So that will help you to make sure that your stitching here in a straight line, and then you start curving after the knotch towards that setting next notch. Now this one here is also important, because it helps you to line it up with the cap top right. There and the last and very important notch that I want to point out is the one here just before the 10 inch mark on your cap side. This is very important because this is where you will stop sewing the cap side to the tie, and you will start your. Alas, kasing the cap top at the center front has a single notch and at the centre back will have two notches, and this will help you differentiate the two when you are putting the cap top together with the cap side. So I've already cut my pieces and you have the cap top on the fold and you open it up. It looks like this you've got the notch there and two little notches there and then two not just here that you can't see very well now and then the notch at the bottom. So that's your cap top! Then you have the cap side, which I also cut on the fold here now. This is a these two look very similar, so make sure that you fold in the right place you fold here, not here and again after I notch it. This is what the pattern piece looks like it's a nice long piece, it's 34 inches long. The last piece is your headband tie, which is basically a strip of fabric that measures two and a half inches. So what I do, because this is a hundred percent cotton - is, I simply snip at two and a half inches, I measure two and a half inches in and I snip it and then I can actually rip the whole strip all the way down. If you are not working with a hundred percent cotton or you're, not confident about this, and you can just measure and cut out two and a half inches the whole width of your fabric and at the end I just snip all the little ends. I'D do it on one side, the other side, this time it actually works that I can just leave it as is, and when I go to seal it, I can just do it. I don't even have to fold it in now. Let'S get started the first thing: you're going to do is to join the head band tied to your cap sides. So you're going to take the tie. Then you cut out and you're going to join the two ends together and find the center front and you're going to do a little notch. Just a tiny knot. Remember you have a quarter inch seam allowance everywhere, so you don't want your Lodge to be too deep. So that looks about right. That'S what you want! Just a little notch right there and you're going to join this knotch little lay it flat here, open up your cap side and you're, going to put both of them right side up okay, so this notch will go at the bottom and you're going to find the Center front bottom notch of your cap side and join it to the notch that you just created. Now, if you need to pin this all the way down, you can go right ahead. So what you're going to start at the notch that you created at the bottom of the cap side? Remember that important knotch, where you have the headband seam and the elastic casing. That notch is where you want to start sewing and you don't have a notch. On the headband tie, you just have a Center one, so another option is to start sewing here and go out and then go back to Center front and go out to the other side until you get to the second notch. But since this is just a straight seam, I'm going to put a pin here or just mark here and then guide my finger here, I'm gon na turn it and I'm just going to stitch straight from this bottom notch pass my Center front all the way to This second notch: okay, now that this is stitched, we're going to open up our piece and we're going to press all of our seams towards the headband tie notice that this is the right side of the fabric and the headband tie is the wrong side. When you get to where you stopped stitching you're going to continue pressing, the headband tie you're going to press a quarter inch, which is the seam allowance that I gave you in the pattern you're going to press all this and press up here. You want to press with your iron all the way down on your cap ties now that you've pressed everything, a quarter-inch up, you're, going to find the point where the cap side meets the headband tie and you're very carefully going to snip just the cap side at The knotch you're going to find where that seam ended and you're going to snip up to it, make sure not to snip the actual thread and again do not snip the tie. Only the side you're going to do the same thing on the other side find where they join. It could be a little bit past the notch it doesn't matter. The point is that you want to snip up to there only on the side, and so now that that is snipped. Just like my two other caps you're going to sew, the headband tie closed so you're going to fold it up and stitch up and stitch over joining them together and stitching, really close to the edge making sure to catch both layers. So if you fold it over too far, you'll notice you're not catching the other layer, so make sure you fold it right up the middle and stitch all the way when you get to the cap side, point right here, you're going to make sure that you clear This piece, where you snipped so you're gon na, join right there and you're gon na keep stitching and notice how now this is free, and this is what we're going to turn for the casing and I'll explain that in a bit so you're gon na keep stitching When you get to the part that you already have a seam, make sure that you cover it and you stitch there and you cover, as you stitch all the way along once you've stitched the headband tie, you can go ahead and iron it. It will give it a nice clean finish, and at this point you want to take the two ends of your cap side and join them together with right sides together and you're, going to stitch along the back the center back, a quarter inch and you're also going To finish it, either with a zig zag or an overlock machine, once you've done those two steps of stitching and overlocking or cig zagging to secure the seam you're, going to press it open and press the seams towards one side. This is what the cap side looks. Like once, you've joined it together again, I went ahead in the center back and I stitched a quarter inch from the seam I over locked it, and I pressed everything to one side now, it's time to attach the cap top to the cap side, so you're going To find your Center front, you have a notch there and you're going to line it up with the center front. Notch of your cap top make sure that you use the side that has a single notch. That side with two notches remember belongs to the center. Back. Now, another reason why I like this pattern over what I saw online is because this does not end in a point which avoids having a center back seam at the pouch portion of your ponytail. I like it to be a cleaner cut, and this allows for that to happen, because it will gather like this. It'S a good idea at this point to iron your cat top. If you were planning on ironing this, because once you attach these two pieces will become a little trickier, so I've gone ahead and done that already and what you want to do next now is flip your cap top so that the right sides are matching and you're Going to match your center knotch and you're going to stitch along the two pieces, with a quarter inch seam allowance, all along the side and you're going to match your side notch right here and you're going to keep going now. The cap side is one big circle as well, so you will eventually line up. The center backs the seam of the cap side with the notch of the cap top and you're going to keep going now. I do suggest that you pin this in place. If you are not comfortable sewing freehand, so to speak and you're going to sew the whole thing and again match your side notch right there and then keep going until you meet up with your initial Center front stitch line right there once you stitched. All of that, you will again, like you, did for the cap side over lock or zigzag that seemed to avoid frame. Okay, we're almost done just for more seams and we secure the elastic and we will be done so. The next thing you want to do now that this is all stitched, is you want to turn it and you want to press your seams towards the cap side. So if you do a side view like this you're gon na turn, the seams, the you just stitch towards your cap side and you're, going to top stitch on the cap side, make sure you're not pinching both you're not doing this and stitching them together. Just on the cap side catching the seam underneath it, this will give the cap more stability, and it's also a nice touch, because it will match the seam that you have for the tie at the bottom, so you're gon na stitch all along the side. All the whole oval the cap side after you press your seams down. So here's where we are right now and now it's time to add the elastic. So I'm gon na turn this inside out and do you remember that we snipped the cap side at the knotch? We'Re going to clean this edge off now. The easiest way to do this is to either zigzag or overlock it. I don't recommend trying to turn it twice. I don't think they have enough fabric there, but you can give it a try, so we're going to just over lock this hole exposed edge once this edge is clean, we're going to stitch the casing for the elastic now at the knotch area. Here we're going to turn it in, but we want to take care of that little fraying area that exposed area and the way to do that is to just turn it inside tiny little bit like a little triangle like that. That will also give you the width that you need, because initially remember told me a quarter-inch seam allowance and you do need about 3/8 of an inch for the casing. I'M using a quarter inch elastic, so that's about a quarter inch and a little bit more extra. So that I can stitch so by turning in the raw edge at an angle like that, you can start stitching here and go all the way along about 3/8 of an inch and that's what I've indicated in the pattern. Piece again. Make sure that you catch that. Underneath and stitch all the way alongside when you get to the other end before you close, it make sure that you fold in the little triangle you fold that in like that and then you're gon na end there once you sew the casing in place. It'S time to insert the elastic now you take a safety pin, and you attach it to the end of the elastic now make sure that you don't go too close to the edge of the elastic, because the safety pin with the pulling might actually unlatch from the Elastic so give yourself a good 1/2 inch or so quarter inch and give yourself enough space there and secure the alas, the safety pin in place now. The other trick that you want to keep in mind is you: do have a seam in the center back. So as your casing, the elastic through. If you go against that seam, where you pressed it, it's gon na get caught in there and it's gon na be a nightmare to try to find the right place to loop. It through so always thread the elastic towards the side that is pressed so you're gon na be facing this way so that it will just slide easily in there. So that means that I have to start on this side. I'M gon na feed it enough to expose only the end of the elastic. So as I get to the end, I'm gon na be careful not to go and lose the elastic inside of the casing. So that's about right, a little more, so you see how the elastic is peeking out. I'M gon na pull it a little bit more like that. That'S what you want and you're gon na zigzag in place catching both the casing and the elastic and that will also serve to catch that fabric that we turned in so that it doesn't come out in the wash and with frequent use. So again, you're gon na zigzag diagonally to secure the casing, to the elastic and to just seal it shut once you seal that in place, you're going to finish feeding the elastic and you will do the same thing at the other end. You will make sure that the elastic is visible and you will zigzag that in place as well. Once that is done, you can go ahead and spread the elastic to make sure that it's even and you can also, if you want to clean it up a bit now that you know that elastic is secure. You could trim a little bit of it, but be careful not to cut too much to compromise that the threads and then it ends up coming out. So I'm going to snip a little bit and a snip here make sure not to catch your fabric. And that's it, and this is the finished cap now. I think that this is just very pretty and elegant and it's minimal it does not have a lot of bulk. I also am NOT using a contrasting ribbon, so it's all self fabric and, as you can see, there's plenty of room in the back for you to be able to tie it and put all of your hair in there again.

Tracey Russell: Thank you for a great video! I am a novice sewer but you made this easy. I have made 7 so far for our employees. Question-can this ponytail cap be made from a fat quarter?

Thanks so much!

Vickiaroo: You have the most soothing voice, and your patterns are so well done! Looking forward to more videos.

Sarah Demarest: This was the second pattern I tried, and it is preferred by our two daughters who are nurses! Your instructions are clear and it is straightforward to make. I do have one question/concern - I do not have a serger (don't know if that makes a difference), but across the back where the ties leave the side band, and the elastic casing starts - those seem like places that could easily tear. I warned our daughters to go easy on it, so hopefully it won't be an issue. But I am wondering if anyone else has come up with a way to construct it so that it's sturdier in this regard. I have been trying to figure out how to make a lined side piece so that I could make the casing between the two layers, thinking that might strengthen it, but haven't quite figured out how to make it work. I did add some tacks (extra zigzagging) at the weak points and hope that is sufficient. Also, I love your music :) Thank you so much for sharing this.

Craig: Thanks Mrs D Freire for another great instructional video, I will attempt this soon but it looks a bit hard for a noob like myself. God bless you

Gloria R.: Great Tutorial! thank you! question you may have answered already, just cannot find it, I noticed there are two different sizes of the same pattern on the drive. Which one would be the "standard" pattern ? It seems as one is enlarged, or have multiple pieces on the page? Thank you again for sharing these, they are great!

corralial gordon: I made alot of the regular ones and also some of the strings ones but this one is totally different

Hannah H. Yasunaga: Hi @MrsDFriere! Do you think you could provide the image as an AO file? Basically not all cut up but all together? I'm using a projector and would love to try it without printing and cutting :) If its not doable, no worries! It's a small paper pattern, I'm just excited to use my new projector! :)

Marc Zeffren: I subscribed and sent an email - can you please send a link with the pattern? Very excited to try to make this. Thanks!

burikdot: Thank you very much for sharing, your tutorial is the best, i am just wandering if you can make a video using a ribbon for the ties instead. God Bless you.

Deidra Towle: So I made this scrub cap today. My hair isn’t very thick and the ponytail section feels too big. Is there a way to alter the pattern to make the ponytail section small?

Nancy Ingram: Thanks! I am making caps for my foot care nurse.

dollsmaria ortiz: WONDERFUL TUTORIAL I WILL DEFINITELY GIVE IT A TRY AS IM A BEGINNER LOTS TO LEARN THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FOR SHARING

Ginny Sharpe: I've viewed several videos and your by far is the best pattern I have found. My daughter is a nurse and asked me just last night to make a few for her. I can't seem to find the free pattern and I've looked everywhere, please help me. Your fabric choice in the video looks rather silky or is it 100% polyester?

Deidra Towle: Sent an email… waiting on the pattern so I can have these made soon.

Veronica Madison: Excellent explanation. Can you offer the measurements as well I believe my printed pattern doesn’t look right

busy mom: I like that uou are very detailed on the pattern before you even start sewing

Sharon Eady: Hi, thanks for an pleasant video. Do you have a scrub cap for short hair. You instruction are very well explain. Thank you.

Felishia Beasley: Great video!! Is it possible for you to do a video using ribbon as the ties?

Carmen M: Hello, How long does the 2.5" strip of fabric need to be? I'm not using standard fabric from a store... I'm re-using fabrics from clothing.

Sandra Swatzel: I am an RN. I work in L&D and we are required to wear hospital required scrubs so my only personalization is scrub caps that I would like to make. I would like the pattern for this one. I did send you an email and am hoping you can send me the pattern. I do have one without the ponytail but I would like this one that you show. And the other one without the pouch but has a similar design. :D Please check your email. I would greatly appreciate it. For the "band" or strap that you say to cut same length as the fabric, what does that mean? is It 42 inches or the same as as the strip that attaches to the cap part. I just want to make sure I cut the right length.

Sharon Cason: No buttonhole ponytail scrub hat is the video I’m looking at and that same pattern .is the one I would like. You do an awesome job on explaining,in detail all your videos. I love watching them. Thanks again!

Marshell Gasque: Mrs Freire, I absolutely love your scrub cap patterns and cannot thank you enough for releasing these to us. I apologize, if this may be out of line, but do you have any thoughts about releasing your face mask pattern? I keep searching for the right one and am to date, disappointed - I have a hard time breathing with masks on and am looking for a simple mask that is away from my nose. Yours looks like it may work for me. I will gladly buy one otherwise. Thank you for all your time in putting these together for us!!
