To make a continuous loop for a chin string, slip a bead onto the string before attaching it to your hat. Holding the bead at the center point of the string, slip both cut ends through a spring toggle. Attach the cut ends to either side of your hat. The bead will keep the toggle from falling off the end of the string, and you have no messy knots hanging in front.
Hey, thanks – I was trying to find a double-hole toggle to make a chin string – it never occurred to me to do this. I can now do this with supplies that are available, and my kids will be able to manage it! Hats off to you for this post 🙂
So glad this was helpful, Chilli!
