Weave in ends A pattern. Say it ain't so. Well it is. I am making crochet headbands for the upcoming craft fair and through some modification I came up with this simple pattern. It's lovely. You can use any size hook, any weight yarn, any width just do the chains in multiples of threes.
For the photo pattern Hook F (3.75 mm) Vanna's Choice (#4 worsted weight) Chain 9
That's it. A very simple but versatile headband. It also has a nice stretch to it for fitting snugly to your head. Since I really hate it when a pattern maker says make length to fit whomever's head it's being made for, I am adding this link from Bev's Country Cottage for average head sizes for all ages. Thank you Bev! You're a lifesaver. Bev's Size Chart for Hats and Headbands Oh. Pattern is free. Make it, sell it, go mad! :-) |
