I made one using a pony tail elastic band that was close to the size of the lid knob. I made a large circle with batting and then gathered the center of the circle in the elastic band and tacked the elastic band in place. I used the colored band that matched the fabric, the band showed on the outside. I sold over a 100 for $1 at a craft show. I was tired of making them. I know it's not very clear instructions, sorry.
