Simple Head Band For Newbies

 If you are new to crochet and wish to start, try this out. This head band is made entirely on single crochet. You can use any hook size and any type of yarn but I would recommend that you use cotton yarn for a start as it is soft and easy to work with. 




The tutorial video :



Start by making the width of the head band. For children, start with a foundation chain of 10 stitches and adult, 15 stitches. You can make more if you wish. Chain 1 more and turn your work. Make 1 single crochet on the 2nd stitch from hook on the foundation chain. Continue to single crochet on all the stitch on the foundation chain. When reach the end, chain 1 and turn your work and continue to do single crochet all around. 

Once you have your desire length, you can sew the end together like how I did in the tutorial video. Just for guide, the length of the band for young children is 11 inches to 17 inches. For toddler is around 18 to 19 inches and adults normally around 22 inches. 

You can measure your head circumference and just minus 2 inches and your head band will fit your head.
