I made this bow with ribbon from the Patty’s Girl 3/8″ Ribbon Mix.
Ribbon mixes are AWESOME! I love them!
They take care of the coordinating of colors AND the amount of ribbon is perfect for a few bows.
The 3/8″ mixes are great for Korkers and Loopy Bows.
This particular bow is made using the Loopy Bow – Variation 1 technique in the
TOTT Hair Bow Instructions.
I started out with the Pink Solid Grosgrain and did a 4″ bow with 8 loops.
The next layer was the Apple Solid Grosgrain at 4″ with 8 loops.
This is White/Apple/Hot Pink Swiss Fun Ribbon. It is switched out from the Apple/White Swiss Dots Ribbon in the mix.
I made this bow at 3.75″ and did only 6 loops.
This is the last layer using Pink Shamrocks Ribbon.
This layer is 3 1/2″ and uses only 6 loops as well.
I stacked all the layers and wrapped my thread around to tighten it together.
Then I used the Pink Shamrock Ribbon to line my french barrette clip.
I finished off the bow by doing a knotted center using the Apple and Pink Solid Grosgrain Ribbons.
This bow is so easy to do and has very little room for error.
It always turns out super cute.
If you haven’t tried it, you need to. You’ll love it!

Hi Janice! Yes the instructions I used to make this bow are in the book I linked to. The tutorial is what ribbons I used and how I layered the techniques learned in the book. I hope this helps!
I ask because I didn’t see any set of instructions when I clicked on the link on how to make it. It just took me to a page advertising a book of how to make a bunch of bows.
Do you have to buy it to get the instructions for the loop?
