Who doesn't love headbands!? Here is a quick and easy pattern that you can easily customize. Shown is a headband with 2 different sized circles on one side... but the possibilities are endless. Make as many or as few circles as you would like. Make them in the same color or separate.

This will take up so little yarn, you could probably make 20 with one skein.

Any worsted yarn will do and whatever hook size you would like. I used H, but gauge is not important at all in this project.

You will need:

1. tape measure
2. stitch marker
3. small amount of 3 colors of yarn

yarn needle

roughly 35inches long.

gauge is not important

spike sc: a single crochet worked in an indicated stitch lower than the previous round of stitches. just draw your yarn up a little higher when working the spike sc.

row 1: with main color, make a chain approximately 17in long. place stitch marker at end of chain
row 2: continue making a chain, join with sl st in first ch
row 3: continue making a chain, join with sl st in the ch with a stitch marker. continue making a chain for desired length of tie band [I recommend roughly 10inches], fasten off.

join same yarn in other end of 3 chains and make other tie band

for circles:
smaller circle:
rnd 1: with color b, ch17, join with sl st to form a ring.
rnd 2: ch1, 22sc in ring, join with sl st to first sc. fasten off.
note: if it is not full enough for your preference, add a few more sc in ring.

bigger circle:
rnd 1: with color c, ch23, join with sl st to form ring.

This is a cute and super-easy headband utilizing the V-stitch. It works up super fast and is a great way to learn to crochet with beads.

Small amount of WW cotton (2 oz. or less), H Hook (US 8.5 mm), approximately 26 6mm beads

This will fit the average head, but you can add or subtract by 3 stitches to adjust it. I made the chain, then sl st it together and made sure it fit my head before continuing.

N/A

Pattern was originally listed on my blog.

Here is a free pattern of a headband I made up last month. This one could again serve as a good stash busting project and can be worked in any yarn with a suitable crochet hook.
