How to Crochet a Headband Video
Headband: G hook (Two sizes, Larger or Smaller Size)
2 inches wide
Row 1: Chain 11, work dc in the 5th chain from the hook, skip a chain, *Ch 1, dc in the next, skip a chain, *Repeat across, Turn -5 dc
Row 2: sc in each dc across, Turn -8 sc
Row 3: Chain 4 (Counts as dc and ch 1) skip an sc, *dc in the next sc(above the previous dc), skip an sc, Ch 1, dc in the next, Turn -5 dc
Repeat Rounds 2 and 3, by alternating between the two rounds, Make the headband 2 inches shorter in length. So I made this for a toddler-sized head, which was 18 inches, and I made the headband length 16 inches long. 18"-2"=16 inches.
