Equipment

  • Size I Crochet Hook 5.5 mm
  • Tapestry Needle
  • Scissors
  • Tape Measure

Materials

  • 147 yards Lion Brand Yarns Landscapes #4 medium weight yarn. For all sizes you will need 147 yards or less. 1 skein of yarn. Colors Shown: Cabana and Mountain Range

Instructions

Begin

  • Start by making a slip knot and adding the loop on the hook.
  • Work enough chains to make your desired length.
  • Here are some suggested starting chains for using a #4 medium weight yarn.
    Child= 57 chain stitches for 16”
    Small Adult or Teen = 63 chain stitches for 18”
    Medium Adult = 69 chain stitches for 20”
    Large Adult = 75 chain stitches for 22” (shown in mountain range color)
    X-Large Adult = 81 chain stitches for 24” (shown in cabana color)

Row 1

  • In the 2nd chain from the hook work a SC in the back bump and in each CH ST back bump across. Turn

Row 2

  • CH 1 (Doesn’t count as a ST). Work a Single Crochet Back Loop Crochet (SC BLO) in the first ST and in each ST across. Turn

Row 3 and Beyond

  • Repeat row 2.
  • You can make this as wide as you like. I have the suggested number of rows below using my gauge.
    Child= 3” work 15 rows
    Small Adult or Teen= 4” work 19 rows
    Medium Adult = 5” work 24 rows
    Large Adult = 5” work 24 rows
    X-Large Adult = 5”work 24 rows
  • When you’re done, leave a long tail. About 15-20 inches. You will be using this to sew the ends together.
  • This photo is of a different headband, but it shows how to fold the ends together for seaming.

Final Steps: Seaming Instructions. Folding and Sewing the Ends Together

  • Fold the band in half matching the ends together.
  • Fold the ends in half matching one end to the center of the other band.
  • The other band fold over the other side to the front. (See photo for placement).
  • Use the long yarn tail and yarn needle to sew the ends together. Starting on one end, insert the hook through all four layers and pull out the other side. Moving the needle over a little, insert it back through the layers and out the other end.
  • When done, weave in the yarn ends and cut off the excess yarn.
