Difficulty: Easy
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, 80 yards/74 meters of Aran/Worsted weight yarn (I used Paintbox Yarns Simply Aran in Raspberry Pink shade)
- Yarn needle for weaving in ends
- Scissors
- Stitch markers (optional)
Stitches Used and Abbreviations:
CH = chain
ST = stitch
SC = single crochet
DC = double crochet
[ ] = used to repeat a longer set of instructions between these brackets, the number of times given
Gauge: 4 SC = 1”
Additional notes:
- If a row starts with a CH 1, that is not counted as a stitch.
- 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 2+1 chains

Row 3-12: repeat Row 2
(35 SC, 35 DC)
After Row 12:
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) (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 4)
- Sew the four layers together with a whip stitch, fasten off. (Pic 5)
- Flip it inside out. (Pic 6)
