Greetings artistic community, artisans and other visitors, I hope everyone is in good health and others, my best vibes at this time for all.

Remember those cute little yarn or wool bows from the 90's? They are back.

These hair buns (known like this in my city) or ponytails, were very fashionable in the 90's, my mother wove many for me because at that time I had my hair to my waist, long and straight, beautiful, so I was always decorating it. Although this may be another topic, now that I wear short pixie style hair, I'm letting it grow a little but I can't stand it anymore, too much heat and it's heavy. As an anecdote I just told you that I wore hair extensions, I bought hair and I went to the hairdresser to weave me some hairpins, I did not take into account in my ignorance that it would be too stressful and painful, an attempt to recover my long natural hair was frustrated because the headache that gave me the weight and the pressure of the hairpins began to raise my blood pressure, I went to the doctor and he told me that I can not wear those things anymore. Well, I can't grow my hair either because menopause suffocates me with the heat, hahaha! That's wearing and accepting menopause in style.

Friends, this was my inspiration to create this hair accessory, my mother taught me to weave them, I had several friends who did it as a business, they sold them and I have noticed that in my town they are appearing again along with ribbons and bows but of other materials. Today I show you this idea to undertake, it is economical and easy to make that you can take advantage or just to give away as in my case, which will be a gift from some relatives who enjoy beautiful long and straight hair. I was looking for them as a rosemary stick to take pictures showing my product but they were not around at that time, only this model with short hair but it is just as beautiful.

Joy, let's create!

Saludos comunidad artística, artesana y demás visitantes espero todos se encuentren muy bien de salud y demás, mis mejores vibras en estos momentos para con todos.

¿Recuerdas esas bellas moñeras o colitas de estambre o lana de los años 90's? Están de vuelta.

Estas moñeras (conocidas así en mi ciudad) o colitas para el cabello, estaban muy de moda en los años 90's, mi madre tejía muchas para mí pues yo en esa época tenía mi cabello por la cintura, largo y lacio, precioso, por lo cual siempre estaba adornándolo. Aunque este quizá sea otro tema, ahora que uso cabello corto estilo pixie, estoy dejándomelo crecer un poco pero ya no lo soporto, demasiado calor y pesa. Como anécdota recién les cuento que me puse extensiones, compré cabello y me fui a la peluquería para que me tejieran unas clinejas, no tomé en cuenta en mi ignorancia que sería demasiado estresante y doloroso, un intento de recuperar mi larga cabellera natural se vio frustrada pues el dolor de cabeza que me propinó el peso y lo presada de las clinejas que comenzó a subirme la presión arterial, fui al médico y me dijo que no puedo ponerme esas cosas ya. Bueno, como que tampoco puedo dejarme crecer el cabello pues la menopausia me sofoca con el calor, ¡Jajaja! Eso es llevar y aceptar la menopausia con estilo.

Amigas y amigos, esta fue mi inspiración para crear este accesorio para el cabello, mi madre me enseñó a tejerlas, tenía varias amigas que lo hacían como emprendimientos, las vendían y he notado que en mi localidad están apareciendo de nuevo junto a cintillos y lazos pero de otros materiales. hoy te muestro esta idea para emprender, es económica y fácil de hacer que puedes sacarle provecho o solo para regalar como en mi caso, que serán obsequio de algunos familiares que gozan de hermosa cabellera larga y lacia. A las que estuve buscando como palito de romero para tomarles fotos mostrando mi producto pero no estaban cerca en ese momentos, solo este modelo con el cabello corto pero que queda igual de hermoso.

¡Alegría, vamos a crear!

Step 1️⃣

Choose the color of wool or yarn that you like, I chose this one that has shades.

Cut approximately 15 centimeters of gum and join both ends, so that it is well fastened you can give a few stitches by hand with sewing thread and needle, if you have a sewing machine it will be neater.

Now start stitching with the yarn. In this case it was easier for me to make a knot with the yarn in the rubber band.

As you will see in the step-by-step, the stitch to knit this little tail is very simple, it is chains, stockinette stitch and medium high stitch but leaving them far apart from each other and very loose.

As in the gif that I present to you, it is all about bordering the whole comma, it consists of giving a stitch inside and outside, use the gif as a help.

Step 4️⃣

Once you have covered the entire edge, repeat the previous step to weave the third and last layer, in the same way, chains of 5 and join with the lower part leaving spaces of 2 to three chains so that they are very loose.

After you have covered all the rubber again, it's time to tie the knot. My mother taught me a very simple one that does not come loose and is not noticeable.

You just make a chain and pull the stitch in the opposite way, it tightens and stays knotted. It won't come loose.

We have concluded, I hope you like this idea of entrepreneurship and I will make a few of various colors. It is a practice that relaxes me a lot and distracts my mind.

Paso 4️⃣

Una vez cubras todo el borde, repite el paso anterior para tejer la tercera y última capa, de la misma forma, cadenas de 5 y vas uniendo con la parte inferior dejando espacios de 2 a tres cadenas para que queden muy sueltas.

Luego de haber cubierto toda la goma nuevamente, es hora de dar el nudo. Mi madre me enseñó uno muy sencillo que no se suelta y no se nota.

Tan solo haces una cadena y halas el punto de forma contraria, este se aprieta y queda anudado. No se soltará.

hemos concluido, espero te guste esta idea de emprendimiento y te animes. yo haré unas cuantas de varios colores. Es una practica que demás me relaja bastante y distrae la mente.

I remember very well when we used to wear them as an accessory on the wrists of our arms, it was common that when we took our hair out for a moment we would leave them there so that they could take shape again. They looked great and were the center of attention. We all wanted one and wanted to have a collection.

Recuerdo mucho cundo las usábamos como accesorio en las muñecas de los brazos, era común que al retirarnos un momento del cabello nos las dejábamos allí para que agarraran forma nuevamente. Se veían estupendas y capturaban el centro de todas las miradas. Todas queríamos una y tener una colección.
