I decided to design a crochet a bun covering a little while back. Heres the pattern, I hope some one can use the pattern. If you don't want to use it as a covering , you can wear it as a hair net under another covering.
Crochet bun covering
I use cotton yarn and H hook.
Rnd1: Ch4. slip st to join and make ring. Ch2. 12DC in ring. join. Rnd2: CH2. 1dc in first st, 2dc in nxt. [1DC in nxt, 2DC in nxt]. repeat from [ to ]. Rnd3-5: Ch2. 2DC in first 1DC in nxt. [2Dc in nxt, 1DC in nxt] repeat. around. join. Rnd 6: CH2. 1DC in first , 2DC in nxt. [1DC in nxt, 2DC in nxt] repeat around. join. Cut a 12 inch long piece of elastic 1/8" wide and weave it through the last row. Tie elastic and hide ends. Stretch over bun and secure with bobby pins if you did not use a hairnet over bun first.
You can make the covering any size you need just measure the distance over your bun (mine is 7 1/4" because I make a flat bun). Then make a flat circle about about 1" in diameter bigger than what you measured. My flat circle was about 8 1/4" in diameter. Weave in elastic a little shorter than the distance around your bun, because it stretches. Use a safety pin to keep the one end from slipping while your weaving the other end. Then tie it and hide the ends.
