- Hat Band Turks Head - Multi Bight Endless Turk's Head - Easy to Tie Turks Head
In this video, I show you how I tied a very long multi bight Turks Head knot to create a decorative headband for my hat. In the making of the hat band I, first of all, took a piece of cord and wrapped it around the brim of my hat 7 times. By doing this it gives me a rough idea of how much cordage I will need for each pass of my endless Turks Head. On my hat band, I ended up doing a 2 pass multi bight Turk's head and therefore I required approximately a length of cord that wrapped around the brim of my hat 14 times.
The Turk's Head hat band can also be made with Paracord, which means that you will be carrying a very long length of Paracord in case of an emergency.

You could connect your starting end and the finishing end with a lanyard knot and leave the two tails about 2” long and add 2 beads as a decorative finish.
I always believe that you should try to make your work stand out from the rest, by adding your own little touches. Love your thinking with this one.
Very nice, thanks for posting. I need a new band for 2 of my hats so will be trying this out. I like the way you give really clear explanations. Last time I made a TH was 40 years ago and was looking up how to start the blighters off and you made it easy. Thanks again.
Thank you so much for your comment, really appreciate it. The only thing I will say, just make it a little bigger than you think. They do have a habbit of shrinking down a bit.
Johnny, I came upon your video just in time, I was getting so frustrated trying to follow other videos. Your suggestion to tape/secure the beginning was so helpful. Also you have a nice soothing way of explaining things. Mahalo and aloha from Hawaii.
Well done. I can imagine seeing this hat band in glowing bright colours on beach hats and Pork Pie hats everywhere . Thanks Johnny.
Pork Pie hats, do they still exist, what about Kiss Me Quick hats?
Johnny Debt Pretty sure pork pie hats still exist, especially in the dollar stores. I've never heard of the other type of hat. :)
Kiss me quick hats were for sale at fairground's and beaches in the UK. They were small hats with tassels on, some even said Kiss Me Quick on the hat band.
Johnny Debt Has, I've never seen one, living here Downunder.
I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos, as they are quite informative and you take the time to ensure people are able to grasp your technique. Please continue the good work.
Tip: Instead of using tape to hold you ends in place at the begining, try instead some wire, or one or two of those coated wires you often get with new electrical stuff (the stuff that holds the cables in nice neat spools), they get in the way far less than tape, are much easier to remove, and can be reused again and again
Oh mate, you want to see how much gear I have already got. I just grab what is at hand. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?
Decorative, im still very new to it actually, done a few wraps for my walking sticks, and a few lanyard type things for not dropping my walking sticks, and i needed a new, or better hat band
Ive seen a few of your videos, it just seemed a bit awkward when you were using the tape so i thought i'd share what i have found works for me, and youve done a great job teaching me stuff, so i tohught i'd try to repay it :)
Are you able to show me any of your work, as I do love to see other peoples knot-craft? You can drag and drop a photo here, please: goo.gl/mQgf8E
Im not really comfortable showing my work for a couple of reasons;
I am still very new to this and my work isnt very neat
Much of it is either copied from you, or from ParacordGuild or BoredParacord, so its better to search them on YT and see their work.
To give some idea of what ive done though.
I've used Triaxial weaves from ParacordGuild's videos as handle wraps for some of my walking sticks, covering the rougher ends with Turks heads learned from you, or Gauchos (not sure i spelt that right) also learned from ParacordGuild
For "lanyard" type things (i wouldve called them wrist straps before i learned that word), i just started with passing a cord through a drilled or pre-existing hole, then doing something similar to various paracord bracelets, and usually completing the strap with either a celtic button knot and loop fastener if i wanted a release, or splicing (which i learned from you) if i wanted a more permanent loop
Not exactly what you asked for, but as you like to see other peoples knot work, if you didnt know of these guys, now you do :)
Ah yes, I do know these people's work. There are also lots of places on Facebook, where you can see some fine examples of people's work. If you can, try meeting up with some people who are also into knot work. This way you may be inspired, but you can also get a feel of how tight other people tie the knot. Thanks again for taking the time to leave a comment.
Hi Johnny,
This has me intrigued. I have a hat just like that and I'm thinking of doing a TH hatband in paracord, maybe gutted would be better? Anyway I want to do one in leather and maybe I'll stitch on a couple of press stud loops to hold them on so I can change them, then do more coloured paracord (or even leather) bands and change them to suit my mood of the moment. Disguise the loops with some small feathers left over from the local craft shop. Just to confuse the neighbours maybe.
If you really enjoy tying these, you could go for one for each day of the week?? I personally quite like working with 3mm paracord, this too comes in many colours. I think if really pushed for just one choice I would choose a white cotton. This way over time it would mature and age beautifully, I just like the look of age in a cord. Thanks for sharing your thoughts here. much appreciated.

Thoroughly enjoy your vids! I've told quite a few folks about your channel, even some friends who are going to be crewing a sailboat from the east coast of Florida through the P. Canal and up to S.F. In California.
Think I'll work this one because my hat needs a new band. Think after the initial sizing, I'll try maybe using a large can or similar as a form while tying and doubling. More rigidity without the brim, maybe? Already subscribed! :).
Thank you for you kind words. Yes, I think it is a good idea to tie it around something solid and then transfer it. I found it a bit of a nightmare to do on something that flexes. Mind you I also remember that keeping it in camera sight was also a problem. That sounds like a brilliant journey you are going on.
netting needle would help with a fair bit to weave left off for weaving,say 12" or so (35cm). how about a homemade needle say squashed up loop roll?
Yes, good ideas there. What I sometimes do is just centre the cord and use 1/2 to go one way then 1/2 to go the other way. Are you a decorative or practical knotter?
the hat band would seem more understandable with the hat viewed as you wear it instead of upside down. none the less the band is what i was thinking to do then i viewed your video. nice
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?
VG thx - liked!

i've nev done any b4 in my life. tonight is the 1st time i ever did any and it was just knotting para-cord as a bright colored fob for a ferro rod and a jute twine holder (fire starting kit). i do have a hat that needs a hat band though and i may attempt to make one like you have in this video. thank you for video & for reply!
OMGosh... i looked further into your channel than just the vid i was on. holy son of a gun..... you are a one true knot man! i surely didn't know the extent of your skills! well, i subbed. when i need to know how to do something i'll know where to go! thank you!
Paracord is great for getting started and makes excellent fobs and bracelets etc. If you eventually think that you want to take it further a good start is Des Pawson's book, has some great projects: amzn.to/2DNMw2p
Glad to have you here, looking forward to chatting more in the future. As you learn the name of knots etc, you will find other great YT sites for inspiration. Also there are some excellent Facebook groups dedicated to decorative knots etc. If you want I can send you some links?
WHAT NAVY DID YOU SERVE IN - CAN'T PLACE YOUR ACCENT. I LEARNED MY KNOTS FROM MY STEP DAD AND HIS OLD BLUE JACKET MANUAL - HE WAS A US NAVY PETTY OFFICER.
Royal Navy! 😀 Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
nice job. By the way Johnny where did you get your spikes from or did you make them
A guy in the States made them for me a few years ago. He is on Facebook, or if you look through this lot you should find someone who makes them: instagram.com/explore/tags/marlinspike/
can you possibly show how you fixed it to the hat please
Hello AC thanks for popping over and leaving a comment. When I attached my hat band I used UHU glue. I find that it is sticky but gentle. It just keeps that band secure, but not too secure. It is also flexible and a little rubbery in consistency. When removing the band the glue is resistant, but not too resistant if you know what I mean. Just off to your channel to sub, as I do love Bushcrafty stuff!!
thanks for the reply. I'll try that.
Would that have been easier using a netting needle to manipulate the working end?
Yes, or start in the middle and then work in both direction. I just wanted to show the full workings of a multi bight Turks head. Thanks for taking the time to watch and leave a comment, much appreciated.
Nice job Johnny, What type cord were you useing.? I think a three pass with purple Paracord on my black [Acubra] hat will look great , Cheers.
I'm trying [ No ones more trying than me , ask my wife ] I've been working with Paracord for a couple of years. I do like the decoratve knots, but at the moment I'm captivated with Braiding. I've worked from 4 to 8 strand various braids, just finished a 6 strand flat braid Belt, holds my Jeans just fine. I am subscribed to you and have passed a few comments . Like your vids. cheers.
If you have a link to any of your work, would love to see it?
I'm a cabinet maker Johnny, know very little of computers, how to put a link to anything is at the moment beyond me. Will speak to my son when next I see him !!
May I suggest you make a sailors sea chest, that way you will force yourself into making some lovely chest beckets? Do not worry about your computer skills, so long as you can watch a video!!
I made two round top sailor chests last year, wife and family member, but small size jewelery boxes. No beckets though just small wooden handles. The Chest beckets you mean look brilliant but a bit beyond me at the moment. I'll wait for you to bring out a tutorial hopefully not quite so complicated, please. :-)
Looks like braided with double twines.
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
I really like all your presentations, and your style and voice. However your tendency to leave junk and clutter there to get in the way is very distracting. It was hard to stay focused on you cord manipulations due to continually anticipating those bits of tape, or the knife, getting caught up amongst the works.
Cheeky
Oh dear, what did I say that was cheeky?
Johnny Debt I thought I spotted an error in your base knot and thought it was cheeky of you to carry on as if we wouldn't notice. But, then again, I'm American, I'm probably using the word incorrectly.
Oh, and I thought that I had actually mentioned you. I was thinking about you all the way through, I could feel you watching and say "you should just use half the cord John, then go the other way." I sometimes wish I had not started this little venture. Would be so nice just to sit in front of the TV and weave away, then just tut, when I make a mistake undo and redo. On camera, you stop-start, get interrupted, sometimes do the whole thing again, cos you just completely messed up something that is so simple at times. I do know that there are a couple of videos that will be revisited for sure!!
Johnny Debt I truly appreciate your videos. You've given me several great ideas. I hope I don't come across as too critical with my comments. I imagine it takes a great deal of effort to produce these. I sit at home in peace and quiet, without the added distraction of narrating and cameras and still manage to screw up my knots. Just last night messed up a giant 4 pass pineapple knot and didn't notice the error until after two rounds of tightening. I almost cried.
Not at all Roger, I really do appreciate all comments from you. When you sit on your own mess up, it is really annoying. You also know that in your mind you actually say to yourself, "OK concentrate now." then about 10 minutes later, you suddenly see out of the corner or your eye, a section laughing at you and shouting "look you missed this bit!" I have never done a pineapple knot, must learn that and do a video me thinks.
