OK, raise your hand if you kids love to play Minecraft! With 4 boys you can bet that it’s a popular game in our house for sure. To keep with the theme I have been doing for hooded towels so far this year of popular characters (see Hello Kitty and Ninja Turtle), today I have a Minecraft Hooded Towel for you! It’s a Creeper!
My boys LOVE Creepers! I am not even sure what they are. OK-in truth I really don’t get Minecraft at all, but they sure love it!
Minecraft Hooded Towel Tutorial:
Supplies Needed:
- Green Hooded Towel (I got mine at Target)
- 1/2 green hand towel
- Black fabric
- Heat Transfer Interfacing like Heat n Bond
- Creeper Hooded Towel Pattern Pieces
Instructions:
I don’t feel like I need to give a ton of instructions on how to make this guy. He’s quite easy once you have the basic hooded towel down.
To get the tutorial for the hooded towel, go here.
But to make it a Creeper, you simply need to print the piece and cut it out. Then cut it from black fabric and interfacing. Iron the interfacing to the back of your black fabric and then the black fabric to your towel.
Then sew a tight zigzag stitch all the way around the outside of the Creeper face.
And that’s it once you follow the hooded towel pattern! Enjoy!

Amber, these towels are so much fun! I’m thinking I’ll make some for the grandkids for Christmas. That means six! But there are plenty to choose from so I best get started. I love your blog. Thank you for sharing so many fun things.

So, if I could change anything about hooded towels, I would add a tie or Velcro or something, so that when Noah is freezing and doesn’t want to take his arms out of his towel, it could still stay closed. Could you create something like that? I think about this every time we go to the pool, and he’s walking out crying because he can’t keep his towel closed and he’s cold and I’m frustrated. Save us, Crafty Cousin!!

I added a snap to the towels so that they stay on better. I put the snap about chest level.

a thought – It may be helpful to cut a couple of 4″ vertical slits, zigzag the edges like a big button hole, one on each front panel, for the kids to slip their little hands through – they could then hold their towel closed!

Sure, what these other ladies replied or even just adding velcro or tying something around his waist could work.
Kelly says
What about using a kam snap to keep it fastened at the front?
Amber says
Sure!
