Turban Sewing Pattern Details

Turban Pattern Description

This turban sewing pattern actually came about from a knitted 1940s vintage turban hat. I first made the original knitted version using a vintage knitting pattern.  Then, I loved the unique design so much that I drafted a sewing pattern to be able to make it from knit fabric for a slimmer, more fitted look.

This turban sewing pattern shows you step-by-step how to make a turban. It includes 3 sizes (small, medium and large) and wraps for a custom fit to the wearer. The pattern you’ll receive includes 18 pages of simple and easy step-by-step instructions, with pictures for each step, diagrams, and sewing tips. The pattern has been thoughtfully and carefully created, with all skill levels in mind, and thoroughly tested to make sure it’s easy to understand.

The turban pattern comes in 3 sizes. Tailoring instructions are also included in the pattern to make size alterations for an adjustable, perfect, custom fit.

  • Small: 21″ – 21 7/8″ (53.34cm – 55.56cm)

  • Medium: 22″ – 22 7/8″ (55.88cm – 58.10cm)

  • Large: 23″+ (58.42cm+)

  • 3/4 yard of 45″ main fabric (knit fabrics like single knits, jersey, cotton interlock, lightweight double knits, stretch velvet or two way stretch)

  • 3/4 yard of 45″ lining fabric (also must be a knit fabric)

  • Notions: thread, scissors, tailors chalk, pins, needle

  • Tools: home printer & 8.5″ x 11″ paper or A4, sewing machine

  • Basic sewing machine zig zag stitching

  • Slipstitch handstitch

  • Sewing with knits

How to Tie the Turban

Our turban is the perfect design for an actual twisted turban that’s easy to put on. Many other DIY turban hat patterns don’t truly wrap around your head — a gathering stitch is made in the front so it only looks like a headwrap.  And on the other hand a fully wrapped turban can be cumbersome to take on and off.  But our version is the perfect balance.  In the video you can see it features a fitted cap, with a loop that extends out of the front which is twisted and wrapped around the wearer’s head.  As a result, it creates an authentic twisted turban, but with a slim, fitted silhouette without the bulk.

This turban sewing pattern also makes a perfect chemo cap pattern. It provides full head coverage and wraps for a custom fit. Many of our customers have made these hats for people who have cancer.
