Hello and welcome to DAY ONE of my One Headband Pattern Each Day for a week event!
As you know, I will release one twisted headband pattern every day for a week on my blog and here’s the first pattern, the Amarië Twisted Headband.
This is a unique twist of my Amarië Earwarmer pattern and it’s a perfect match to my Amarië Beanie and Amarië Infinity Cowl.
Special thanks to my tester: Rebecca Urrutia

Difficulty: Intermediate
Finished Size:
Adult Small but it can be easily adjusted to any size and width
Materials needed:
- 5 mm (H) size hook (I used Cream Streamline by Furls)
- 40 grams, 81 yards/74 meters of Aran/Worsted weight yarn (I used Paintbox Yarns Simply Aran in Tea Rose shade)
- Yarn needle for weaving in ends
- Scissors
- Stitch markers (optional)
Stitches Used and Abbreviations:
CH = chain
ST = stitch
SP = space
SK = skip
SLST = slip stitch
SC = single crochet
DC = double crochet
Puff Stitch = Puff ST
{ } =indicates how many stitches go into the same stitch or used to repeat a small set of instructions between these brackets the number of times given
[ ] = used to repeat a longer set of instructions between these brackets, the number of times given
Additional terms/ Special Stitches:
Puff Stitch (Puff ST):
- Yarn over hook, insert hook in indicated stitch, pull up a long loop through that stitch (3 loops on hook)
- Yarn over hook again, insert hook into the same stitch, pull up a loop (same height as the previous one) twice more. You should have 7 loops on your hook. (Pic 1)
- Yarn over and pull through 6 loops, (2 loops remain on your hook) (Pic 2)
- Yarn over and pull through both remaining loops. (Pic 3-4)
(This way, you will only have 1 loop on top of the puff stitches, instead of 2)
Gauge: 4 SC = 1”
Additional notes:
- If a row starts with a CH 1, that is not counted as a stitch.
- CH 2 always counts as double crochet.
- US terms used throughout
- At the end of every row, there’s going to be a note with the stitch count, so you can keep track of your work easily and avoid any mistakes. It’s written in a different color in bold
- Notes are written in a different color in (brackets) to help you through the pattern.
- You can start each row as I did in the pattern or you can use a standing stitch or chains, it’s totally up to you!
- You can easily adjust the width of your headband: the starting chain should be multiples of 7+3 chains

Fasten off, leave a long tail to sew the ends together.
Sewing the ends together:
- Put a stitch marker in the middle of the short side, lay it flat vertically with the marked end on top. (Pic 1)
- Fold it in half by matching the short ends: the left corner of the other side should be on top where the stitch maker is. (Pic 2)
- Fold left side upwards on top of the top layer. (Pic 3-4) (Note: keep the long tail free on top to avoid it getting wrapped in while folding)
- Fold right side downwards under the bottom layer. (The right corner will be under the stitch marker)(Pic 5)
- Sew the four layers together with a whip stitch, fasten off. (Pic 6)
- Flip it inside out. (Pic 7)
