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.
Hook size: J / 6.0mm
Abbreviations
ch = chain
sc = single crochet
dc = double crochet
Crochet Headband Pattern
ch 16
Row 1: skip the first two ch, dc 14, turn
Row 2: sc 14, ch 2, turn
Row 3: dc 14, turn
Row 4- 50: repeat row 2 & 3
Use a yarn needle to sew the two ends together.
Fasten off, add a cute flower and you are done!
Be sure to check out my Learn to Crochet series for great refreshers on each stitch.
Adding the gorgeous crochet flower really finished the project off nicely. I think that this one is my favorite!
If you make one please share! I would love to see it.
What size hook did you use?
Oh! I will edit to add J – 6mm the recommended size to use with Vannas Choice 🙂
Oh heck..I used a 5..should I do a few more rows?
You should be okay 🙂
What is the thickness of the yarn?
Medium, worsted weight 🙂
How did you connect it? Just sew, button, elastic?
I sewed the ends together with yarn.
Do chain 2 for row 2 and 3 or just row 3
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! 😀
I have just signed up for ravelry and uploaded a few of my patterns! Thanks 🙂
how do you make the flower
I have a separate tutorial for that – search “crochet flower” 🙂
Do you give permission to sell any headbands someone may make with your pattern?
Sure! Please include a link to my pattern in the listing when selling online. Thanks 🙂
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.. 🙂
Is the dc US or UK method? Sorry just learning, and it’s confusing.
US method – no problem! Be sure to check out my Learn to Crochet eBook if you would like a refresher 🙂 xo
How do you fasten off?
Thanks
Dala
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.
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
Thanks for the feedback! xo
Great design and easy to follow. I’ve made one for my sister for Christmas! Different flower, which I’ve also made detachable.
Thanks.
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.
Good to hear! <3
how did you determine the small, medium, and large size headbands in the top picture.
There are all the same size – its just the angle of the photo 🙂
ok thank you so much.
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!
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 🙂
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!
3.5″ approx
Thank you so much!
My daughter was just asking me to make her a new headband. This one looks quick and easy – pinning!
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
Did you leave out the turning chain or not se them? May be confusing to new crocheters.
No turning chain when transitioning to the single crochet row.
How much yarn is needed for one headband?
Hmmm about 1/2 a skein of Vannas Choice.
