How to assembly a head band so that it becomes a braid in front

In this DROPS video we show how to assembly a head band so that there is a braid in front, like it is done in DROPS 214-68. The head band is worked as a tube with an opening at each end. When assembly, lay the tube flat - make sure that the tube is not twisted. Sew the openings at the ends with a seam on each side, sew in the outermost loop of the outermost stitch so that the seam does not become thick. The piece is now a flat rectangle, fold the rectangle lengthwise so that it lies double. Now lay the long sides of the head band together in layers without twisting the work. The ends of the head band now lies alternately inside and outside each other, and the edges lies edge to edge. Sew through all layers with tight whip stitches with 1 stitch in each stitch - it is important that it is sewn through all layers so that the seam do not show when the work is turned inside out. Turn the work inside out, so that the seam is on the inside of the head band. This head band is worked in DROPS Alpaca and DROPS Kid-Silk, the same qualities we use in the video.
