How to make really easy DIY Scrub Caps

Free Easy reversible, DIY, changeable, long hair or short hair, male or female, Scrub Caps... No pattern or download needed :) And if you don't have elastic you can use the small piece of ribbon! The elastic is designed just to hold the hair and keep the back of the hat gathered together. The ties hold the hat onto your head not the elastic.

I do the cutting and my wife does the sewing. She is up to 175 hats in the past 3 weeks for our local hospital. Thank you for the easy pattern (from my wife!). Before that my wife made over 700 masks. I am so proud of her work.

[@angelgeorge4637]

Woa..she sews quickly!!

[@Magendain06]

That’s amazing. As a nurse, I know that the staff at that hospital truly appreciate that!

[@traceynelson1204]

That's amazing! Well done to the both of you 👏 😍

And you are awesome to help, support, and take pride in your wife. She is a lucky woman.

[@paulrutherford2711]

Thank you for the tutorial, My wife has just lost her hair due to chemo for breast cancer, she loves sewing and this has helped her take control of the hair loss and a project to keep her mind occupied. She played with the dimensions slightly to get a best fit and used slightly wider ties to make a feature of the bow and padded out the “gather” with bundle of muslin.

[@OwnedByAGrey]

Put silk fabric to the inside, and you have yourself a great sleeping cap for those of us girls with curly or ethnic hair. Great pattern! Thank you SO much for sharing!

[@Jessica-nt7kc]

Thank you for sharing so many wonderful ideas, patterns, and tips! For those who need to see supplies written out, like me, it sounds like the pattern requires: Two 18 x 22 inch rectangles of main fabric(s) One 2.5 x 45 inch fabric strip (or 2- 2.5 x 22.5 inch fabric strips) One 8 inch piece of elastic :)

[@funchkeens]

Jessica Thank you for writing out the dimensions. Very helpful & thoughtful :)

[@darlineludemann2402]

Hi Jessica, you've probably already figured this out but, you'll need 2 of the 2.5"x45" fabric strips.

[@fatimatolepova7266]

Thanks, very good

[@bmrs.g7108]

Great tutorial thanks

[@dtate001]

Thanks for writing this out. perfect!!

[@ritabrunetti381]

As I watched this video I imagined that these caps would be welcomed by women who may have cancer and have lost their hair. How pretty to make them with bright and colorful prints. I appreciated the fact that you could simply fold the cap and make a cuff. So many uses for a simple pattern. Thanks!

[@caroldean4417]

We would really appreciate them. I used to have a head of beautiful long thick silky hair. Not anymore thanks to ibrance. But hey, it is keeping me alive. (Well GOD is but let’s keep going for now.) Not only hair loss from Chemo but hair loss, thinning, or change due to a number of factors: chemo, CDK inhibitors, loss of estrogen in CA pts from treatment, aromatase inhibitors, alopecia (immune system attacks hair follicles and kills them), trauma, anxiety (hair pulling), etc...can you tell i was a RN before MBCA (metastatic [this means stage 4, the last stage] breast cancer)? Don’t forget the kiddos! Can this pattern be downsized for the kids?

[@ritabrunetti381]

@@caroldean4417 Hello Carol. So you're telling me that you have breast cancer? I'm sorry to hear this. Prayers are heading your way. God bless you and give you strength during this time.

[@wordwalkermomma4]

Exactly so! I saw this tutorial and thought, "How timely", as my hair has just begun to fall out from chemo. (for Rectal cancer) I'm finishing up my cap now. Thank you, Laura of Sew Very Easy, for teaching me to make a simple yet pretty cap to don my quickly balding head. 😃

[@ritabrunetti381]

@@wordwalkermomma4 You are in my prayers. Like Laura you need us to wish you well during this challenge. God Bless you both.

[@updownstate]

Exactly! I wonder if the back of the cap will get pressed down against a carseat headrest or something and make it obvious that there's no hair there, or if I'm overthinking this.

[@plauditecives]

If anything good could be said of COVID-19 (and I realize that's a somewhat controversial thing to say), it's that it has created a renaissance for skills like sewing, and highlighted the great value of creativity and of self-sufficiency.

Plauditectives, i also have witnessed kindness in humanity.

yes, I got my machine out, dusted it off, and am making lots of masks for local hospitals.

a lot of us have been sewing all along (thats how i found this lady) its also how so many already had stashes of fabric for mask making. but now more people are re-finding or are learning this fun and useful skill

Thank you Laura for this great pattern and clear instructions (as always!). I live in Dublin, Ireland, I'm 77 and the 70's and over cohort has been restricted from going outside of our apartment/house for many weeks. I always wear my hair short but now it's difficult to know what to call it - "forked lightening" springs to mind :-) I have lots of fabric so I think I'll give this a whirl. I have to say that I was moved by so many of the comments and the spirit of everyone. I send you all my best wishes and prayers. God bless and stay safe.

[@concepcionmendoza6373]

The pattern is doable. I am planning to make some hats/caps for my friends and churchmates who are undergoing chemo. My sewing machine just arrived and i happened to came accross your video and i think i can do it. Your video is very clear. Thanks for sharing your talent. GOD BLESS.

[@nesinapod2512]

Thank you so much. I'm an ER nurse and have been making these caps for my colleagues on my days off and evenings after work. It's been a nice and easy relaxing activity. I've made 8 of them so far using Kaffe Fassett collection fabric.

[@c.r.mcleod8959]

Love how your tutorials are straight to the point with instructions & so easy to follow, not to mention the tips too. I made one of these caps tonight using an Oriental floral print with a solid orange fabric for the 2nd piece. It turned out really great, sent a photo of it to my friend and she asked me to make her one just the same. Tomorrow I will be making a few more caps. Thank you so much :)

[@NavajointheCity]

Thank you for the fast tutorial! This cap appears much easier to make than the other ones; which I did make with matching masks for hospital workers on the Navajo Nation. I sure appreciate your talent. THANK YOU again. I will give it a try this weekend. Many blessings!

[@janesprague1]

Beautiful, Laura, both you and the pattern! It reminds me of one of the first sewing projects I ever made in seventh grade, the triangular head scarf with ties. This one is much more useful at keeping your hair where it can't get in the way of things and it looks like there's not much chance it will slip off. Thank you so very much!

[@dibennett4945]

Wonderful tutorial. I’ve been making caps for my daughter who is an ER nurse. This is the cutest pattern Love how it can tie on top of the head

[@znycelondon5313]

This is such a splendid way to cover the head. I have alopecia and can see how I could wear this and still feel covered well and look stylish at the same time. Also I would choose coordinating fabric and make it double sided. I will make the ties wider too....that way I can tie it while giving it a turban look. Thank you so much for caring by sharing.🥰

Thank you so much for sharing this pattern. I have been purchasing plenty of head coverings through Garlands of Grace, and I may purchase more, but I was looking to make my own snood style headcovering because I love to sew, but I did not want it to be too extravagant, just pretty and modest.

[@irismiddaugh9868]

Hello Mrs. Laura!. I do want to thank you sooooooo much for such great idea and video. I deeply appreciate your sweetness, kindness, clarity, intelligence and at the same time respect and simplicity to explain how to sew this beautiful hat. I am a begginer in sewing and let me tell you, as tired of the day as I was, you motivated me so much that I got up and went straight to sew this beautiful hut and I finished it following your wonderful instructions. Endless thanks to you for your respectful way of teaching and for making me feel that I can do it. I'm sure that you have motivated thousands of other people too. I will go to the supermarket wearing this hut and my mask (that are so much needed these days -and always-). This is the exact hat I was needing. God bless you very much for your generous heart. You are so beautiful and so nice!. My best wishes for you. 😍💖💐🎉🎊👏👋👌👍🙏🤗

This is one of the BEST tutorials for a much needed product I have come across in years!! And you're so easy to listen to and great to look at, to boot! I am a Paramedic, and have been struggling with configuring my hair (short), goggles, glasses, face mask, in the heat of SW Florida, and it's been just a mess. I am STILL experimenting with methods and figuring out the right sequence to don on the equipment, for our specific setting, in a way I can continue seeing without getting fogged up, keep my hands from having to come back to my head for adjustments after I engaged in patient care, and remove the head/face protections in the right sequence once I'm finished. I think the right head gear will help the rest fall in place. I have baby-soft post-chemo very thin hair which holds nothing, and a small egg-shaped head (that is, that prominent curve in the back is not as prominent), and ball caps have helped keep stuff in place from sliding, but are not the ultimate solution. I have my machines ready to go into action experimenting with mask designs (not for work, unfortunately) and head coverage (for work), and hundreds of pounds of fabric to do it with. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I Need this badly!!

[@msimmons39]

My daughter just got her first job in a restaurant and the owners told her she needed to bring her own "chef's cap" to keep her hair up and out of the way (they only provide hair nets.) So happy to find this video with a familiar face (I also made drawstring pouches from another one of your videos!) This was so much easier to follow than the PDF patterns I downloaded, and fun to sew! My daughter wore it to work and now every one of her female co-workers wants one, so I am making a half dozen more to coordinate with the restaurant's colors/logo!

LaRae, I hope you don't mind my responding to your comment. I made a couple of old fashioned prairie bonnets a year ago, and when we needed masks this year I used leftover fabric from those bonnets. So I have been wearing my puffy prairie bonnets with matching masks and having a good time doing my grocery shopping!

I made a scrub cap and used binding tape instead of making the straps . I have been wearing this cap all the time! It is so comfortable, versatile, and cheerful. Thank you for the tutorial

[@xyzsame4081]

Cut up pantyhose makes a good elastic as well. just make the stripes wider, when you stretch them they get smaller and then nothing will fray. they are quite elastic - not as much as the bought ribbons, but quite good. and the waist bands are very elastic.

A piece of masking tape works well also.

[@c.r.mcleod8959]

@@deepattison9329 , does the masking tape leave a sticky residue? I have seen plenty of videos with it being used, is there a preferred type of tape to use? I'm trying to tame my new overlocker (serger) & this sounds like a good way to mark out seam allowances. Thank You :)

Nicarey 71 You can use blue painters tape or this is what I’ve been using for years-“Sewing Edge - Reusable Vinyl Stops for Your Machine: 5 Strips Quilt with Marci Baker”. It’s on Amazon for about $10.00. I only use 1 strip a year so it’s worth it! & it really helps my seams to be the perfect 1/4” 🙂 🧵

I use blue painters tape for markings on my machine. Works really well, and no leftover adhesive.

I.Love.This.Tutorial. If you do assembly line style, these go so fast. I’ve noticed the thinner the elastic the less bunch the back will be. This is everything I’ve been looking for in a pattern, which is not a pattern.

[@nimlasingh2952]

I loved the clear directions and very clearly spoken . I shall watch your other tutorials. A BIG THANK YOU 🙏

[@dianeaxle3930]

Thank you for being quick, easy and to the point. Update (5/15/20) I just made this tonight. I'm just learning how to sew and this was easy to make. Thank you for being a fabulous teacher.

Wonderful! I can make one of these to keep the sawdust out of my hair when I am sawing wood. The folded scarves I’ve tried just weren’t working very well. Thanks for a very well-done video.

[@windyday434]

I love this! No more paper bag over my head to get home from my salon hair cut! lol

[@cindylevans6162]

Love this! I thank you for not only keeping it simple and thorough but for speaking slowly with a clear-toned voice. A+ keeper ;-).

O. M. G. This video had me sitting up and taking notes then heading directly to my crafting corner. What a game changer! I love the way you showed how to make the "ponytail" in the back and that it's reversible! I always make bows with my scarves when I tie them on my head so I definitely saw a kindred spirit in this video. I don't work in a hospital but I have a lot of bad/lazy hair days. I am going to figure out how to do it slightly less bouffant for a male nurse I know.

This is great seeing how we can’t get to the hairdressers. Thanks for this great and easy pattern

[@grandmalovesmebest]

yes yes yes! ive been wearing my crochet hats to cover a bad haircut this winter but summer will come and these cloth caps will be cute (and compliment out masks) for warmer weather. everybody be well.🙋

[@jilllowman9848]

That's what I'm looking for. Something to cover this mess of hair until I can get to my hairstylist. And to keep me from hacking at it or pulling it out!

[@jilllowman9848]

Made one today and I love it. Put it on immediately and haven't taken it off!

[@kristinehughes5798]

Oh me too. I can't wear headbands because they give me headaches. I saw this and thought would be good for anyone wanting to cover their hair. I am going to ask my sister who is an RN is she would like some

[@lindaborowiec4224]

Love, love, love it. I can’t wait to make them in many colors as I am growing my short hair out to a different style .... why not?

[@ICURNKrissy]

Thank you. I make these for my ER nurses and they love them. I love to be able to help my frontline ladies. This is the easiest pattern I have found yet.

[@chuongmadore5844]

Sergical cap updates. I made 3 this morning for my sister. She loved loved loved them! I'm going to make some more this week for her colleagues. Thank you again for your sharing!

[@victoriablackwood8138]

Amazing! It looks so cute too. I knew I was saving those adorable fat quarters for something!
