Let’s start this blog out right… with a freebie pattern! Decided this morning that my granddaughter’s outfit needed a headband. This literally took me less than 10 minutes to make, and barely used any yarn.
Size: Fits my (nearly) 4 yr old granddaughter’s head perfectly.
Yarn: anything worsted, and not much of it.
Hook: F (4.0mm)
Ch 77.
Row 1: dc in 3rd ch from hook, ch 1, *dc in next ch, ch 1* (repeat * to * until you reach end) end with a dc in the last ch. That’s it for the band! Cut yarn at least 12″ long, you’ll use this tail to finish the headband into a circle.
Flower:
Round 1: Ch 3, work 8 dc into the 3rd ch from hook. Join with sl st to first sc.
Round 2: *Ch 2, 2 dc, ch 2, sl st into next dc* into each dc around. Cut yarn at least 12″ long. Should have 10 petals.
Center: I used a little white yarn to make a center, to make it more flower-like. Simply join by sl st to the top of any dc in Round 1, then sl st around the rest of that circle. Then ch 1, and sc in each sl st around. Join to beg of round with sl st. Cut yarn at least 12″ long. Use the yarn tails to sew flower to the headband. That’s it!
Just what I was looking for! So Cute!
Love this! And what a great way to use up left over bits of scrap yarn! Thanks for sharing the pattern! :)
She looks so cute in that last pic. :) I love it.
