Sorry,
It is called a korker bow.

Could you attach (sew) a strip of ribbon to the bottom of the korker (or around it) and then wrap it around the pony-o?

I have not tried to attach them to a pony o yet only barrettes.
If you sew them you could add a piece of unkorked ribbon at the start of threading onto the needle (it would be at the bottom). Once you have finished off threading the korker and tied it off then the straight piece at the bottom could be wrapped around pony o.
Just a thought.
Good luck

I always have a 3/8 piece about an 1" or so to wrap around the clip or barrette I'm using. For a pony I sew mine to the pony to secure it, I don't go up through the whole korker I sew just the 3/8 piece and use craft/button thread which is really strong. Then I hot glue the ribbon around the thread to cover it. Hard to explain, I can see it in my head!

I also advise my customers to only use the pony to hold the bow that they should use a good non-slip pony-o to put the hair up and then put the bow's pony over it so preserve the pony. Over time it can break.

HTH!

This is how I've started doing mine also. I've only made 2 like this and I think this will be the method I do for all.

I just take two of the korkers and wrap them around the pony o and sew them.
