What’s the Project? Learn how to make a hooded towel quickly and easily. This basic hooded towel tutorial will teach you to make a large towel that moms and kids will love.
Is there anything better than a baby who has just been bathed? Baby heads smell so good! Or how about a cute toddler all washed and smelling amazing wrapped in a cozy hooded towel? I miss the days of little ones all washed and clean and snuggly. But I love to give these as baby gifts because they are wonderful to have around when you’ve got little ones.
Making one of these basic towels is easy. And you’re going to love having one of these for your kids. They are so big and last for years and years. My kids have used them up to about 8 years old. I’ll show you in this post how to make a hooded towel and then if you want you can move beyond and make fun animal hooded towels too.
Here’s a peek at what you can make as you learn to master the art of these cute things!

How to Make a Hooded Towel
Sew a hooded towel starting with the basics. You can then make them into fun characters and animals. These are great for babies, toddlers, and kids up to about the age 8.
Supplies
- 1 bath towel (just about any towel will do. I usually get them at Target or you can search online for your color of choice.)
- 1/2 hand towel (coordinating with the towel)
- 1 heavy duty sewing machine needle optional, but it can really help. My machine will sew through this just fine, but be warned, your machine might struggle sewing through several layers of towel. If you break a needle you might want to try getting a heavy duty needle.
And that’s it. You’ve got yourself something the kids will love and it makes such a great gift too! Be sure to check out all of the variations here.
I hope that you’ve been successful making this. And I hope you have fun making many more! They really are a favorite of mine!
