    Best thing to do is buy traditional wool garter ties that are already pre-made for that purpose. But if you don't want to spend that much on them, you can sort of fake it by going to the fabric store and looking for twill tape. It will usually be on a spool, somewhere on a shelf with ribbons and decorative trim items. If you can find 1" wide twill tape, then cut it around 36" length, fringe the ends and keep it from unraveling, it can work.
