Nylon Strip Covered Clothes Hanger

I would like to find the directions to cover a clothes hanger with wide nylon strips. My kids learned to do this in 4-H or school, but I don't know where these directions are. Thank you.

The only hangers that I have seen covered in nylon net material are some where the fabric is cut in strips about 2" wide and then you cut the strips in lengths of about 4" and then tie them around the hanger as close together as you want. They make a really pretty hanger and the fluffiness makes it so that knit garments don't get "hanger humps" on the shoulder line. They are also pretty.

I used to make them for gifts and tie a narrow bow around the neck of the hanger along with a small silk flower. I can't remember the exact measurements of the strips of fabric, but the ones I gave you sound about right. If I remember right I tied the strips around the hanger using a double knot for security.
