Materials needed:
Worsted weight yarn of any color 
     *I used Sugar n Cream Mod Green
Scissors
 
Fits:

Size 22-23″ circumference

Stitches used:
ch= chain
sc= single crochet
dc= double crochet
sc dec= pull up a loop in next 2 st, yarn over, pull though all 3 loops on hook
sl st= slip stitch
st= stitch
*note: there is not a button hole in this pattern as I prefer to just use the spaces between the double crochets to slip the button through
 
Band:
ch 7 then…
1. sc in 2nd st from hook and in each st across (6 sc)
2. ch1, turn, ch2 (counts as a dc here and throughout the band) dc in 2nd sc from hook and across (6 dc total)
3. ch1, turn, 2sc in 1st st from hook, sc in next 4 st, 2sc in last st (8 sc)
4. ch1, turn, ch2, dc in 2nd sc from hook and across (8 dc)
5. ch1, turn, sc in each st across (8 sc)
6. Repeat row 4 (8 dc)
7. ch1, turn, 2sc in 1st st from hook, sc in next 6 st, 2sc in last st (10 sc)
8. ch1, turn, ch2, dc in 2nd sc from hook and across (10 dc)
9. ch1, turn, sc in each st across (10 sc)
10-32. Repeat alternating rows 8 & 9 (starting with row 8)
33. ch1, turn, sc dec in 1st and 2nd st from hook, sc in next 6 st, sc dec in last 2 st (8 sc)
34. ch1, turn, ch2, dc in 2nd sc from hook and across (8 dc)
35. ch1, turn, sc in each st across (8 sc)
36. Repeat row 34
37. ch1, turn, sc dec in 1st and 2nd sc from hook, sc in next 4 st, sc dec in last 2 st (6 sc)
38. ch1, turn, ch2, dc in 2nd sc from hook and across (6 dc)
39. ch1, turn, sc in each st across (6 sc)
After finishing row 39, continue around the outside of the band working in this pattern:
2 sc around each outer dc (whole post), 1 sc around each outer sc (whole post)
…starting with 2 sc in the first outer dc. Work around the side of the band until you get to your foundation chain. Sc in each of the loops of your foundation chain (6 sc) and then continue on in the regular pattern up the other side of the band. You should end up with 120 total sc around the band NOT counting row 39. Fasten off. Attach a button to one end.
Flower:
I actually used this crochet flower pattern but only up through row 5 because the flower was getting quite large. I attached swarovski rhinestones to the middle with E6000.

  1. On the rows where you are going to DC, it should say: ch 3, turn, DC in 2nd SC and in each across. I knew what you meant, but a novice crocheter might read DC in 2nd st from hook to mean the 2nd of the ch 2 that was part of the turning chain.

  2. I would like to make this for my daughter, the size says for a 22 to 23 inch circumference, if I wanted to measure her head would it be the way the headband would be worn, or just around the head normally? I did measure the way the headband would be worn and hers is about 20 inches. If I could get some help making this for my daughter I would be so grateful!! She wants one just like this (and to be honest it's the best one I've found! Thank you so much

  3. I like to measure where the headband will actually sit. If you need to make it smaller, get rid of a few of the middle rows, but just make sure you get rid of 2 at a time (so either don't do row 31 & 32, or 29, 30, 31, and 32). Does that make sense? You could also just do the pattern how it is and she could button it up tighter. That's the benefit of not making an actual button hole because it adjusts easily. Hope that helps!
