Today I am sharing the pattern for this lovely crochet headband. I have had many requests for the “how to” and it is one of my top sellers at the craft fairs that we attend. If you would like to make the flower embellishment as well be sure to check out my crochet flower pattern tutorial.
Here I used Vanna’s Choice yarn from Michaels in Barley and Oatmeal. This is my absolute favorite yarn! It’s so soft and easy to work with. I use Vanna’s Choice for most of my crocheting and have a skein saved in my craft room of just about every color!
Hook size: J / 6.0mm
Abbreviations
ch = chain
sc = single crochet
dc = double crochet
Adding the gorgeous crochet flower really finished the project off nicely. I think that this crochet flower with all of the buttons is my favorite! I simply sew these onto the headband with yarn or sometimes I glue a safety pin to the back of the flower so that it can be easily removed.
If you make one please share! I would love to see it.
Have fun crocheting and if you need a refresher, check out my EBook below…

What size hook did you use?
Heather Painchaud says
Oh! I will edit to add J – 6mm the recommended size to use with Vannas Choice 🙂
ashley says
Oh heck..I used a 5..should I do a few more rows?
Heather Painchaud says
You should be okay 🙂
Katelyn says
What is the thickness of the yarn?
Heather Painchaud says
Medium, worsted weight 🙂
Sarah says
How did you connect it? Just sew, button, elastic?
Heather Painchaud says
I sewed the ends together with yarn.
Robin says
Do chain 2 for row 2 and 3 or just row 3
Paula says
I was trying to find this on Ravelry and couldn’t. Is it there under a different name? I found one design by Twin Dragonfly Designs, but it wasn’t this one. Would love to see you and follow you on there! 😀
Heather Painchaud says
I have just signed up for ravelry and uploaded a few of my patterns! Thanks 🙂
Carol says
how do you make the flower
Heather Painchaud says
I have a separate tutorial for that – search “crochet flower” 🙂
Johanna says
Do you give permission to sell any headbands someone may make with your pattern?
Heather Painchaud says
Sure! Please include a link to my pattern in the listing when selling online. Thanks 🙂
Mary Lou Lane says
That is very nice. I so often find people not willing to let you sell the finished product. I also design patterns and say hey if you want to sell them you did the work.. 🙂
Michelle says
Is the dc US or UK method? Sorry just learning, and it’s confusing.
Heather Painchaud says
US method – no problem! Be sure to check out my Learn to Crochet eBook if you would like a refresher 🙂 xo
Dala Jenkins says
How do you fasten off?
Thanks
Dala
Heather Painchaud says
You can fasten off however you choose. Some people simply tie a knot while others like to weave in the ends with a yarn needle.
Helen says
Thanks for this. Online patterns are like recipes, many don’t produce something anything like the picture and require making your own changes to get a decent result. However this one is simple and very good. There are so many different flowers you can make on pinterest that there are endless possibilities for this design! I’ll be adding these to my craft stall at Christmas.
Thank you from Sheffield, UK
Heather Painchaud says
Thanks for the feedback! xo
Charlotte says
Great design and easy to follow. I’ve made one for my sister for Christmas! Different flower, which I’ve also made detachable.
Thanks.
Mel El says
Hi thanks for the pattern! They are very pretty. I made my first one with a different yarn but it came out too large and long maybe because my tension is looser, and I’m still learning. So I went and bought the Vanna’s choice in oatmeal and tried it with 12 columns and 45 rows instead and that was better for my work I found.
Heather Painchaud says
Good to hear! <3
Bessie Smith says
how did you determine the small, medium, and large size headbands in the top picture.
Heather Painchaud says
There are all the same size – its just the angle of the photo 🙂
Bessie Smith says
ok thank you so much.
Shelene says
What are the finished width and length on the headband and also the size of the flower? I’m using the brands of yarn and the sizes of hooks in the patterns, but mine are turning out really big. I’m just wondering if they are supposed to be that big or if I need to adjust something. Thank you!
Heather Painchaud says
I’m sorry, I don’t have the dimensions. My stitches a pretty tight, the size sometimes depends on the gauge of your stitches and tension in your yarn. I would suggest just dropping a row if your headband is too big. Have fun 🙂
Sherry Haskins says
I was wondering the same thing…Can you tell me the finished width of the headbands in the picture so that I can compare it to the width I came out with? Thanks!
Heather Painchaud says
3.5″ approx
Sherry Haskins says
Thank you so much!
Roseann Hampton says
My daughter was just asking me to make her a new headband. This one looks quick and easy – pinning!
Christy says
I am making the headband for the first time and I am following your pattern but mine looks different. Do you have a tutorial on this
Heather says
Did you leave out the turning chain or not se them? May be confusing to new crocheters.
Heather Painchaud says
No turning chain when transitioning to the single crochet row.
Jenna H says
How much yarn is needed for one headband?
Heather Painchaud says
Hmmm about 1/2 a skein of Vannas Choice.
