Spring flower headband - free pattern


Our part of the world has said goodbye to spring. This year we enjoyed an unusually extended period of spring but now the temperature is steadily rising and day by day it's getting hotter and hotter.


Here is a pretty spring inspired headband pattern for you to enjoy. The headband can be made to fit any head size. I used sport weight yarn in 4 colors and 3.5 mm hook. You can use any yarn and a suitable hook.

The pattern is written using American terms.

Abbreviations used: ch - chain, sl st - slip stitch, sc - single crochet, hdc - half double crochet, dc - double crochet, ch-sp - chain space

cluster - 2 dc stitches worked together in same space.

Instruction  
Headband

Row 1: Using green ch 5, cluster in last ch from hook. Turn.
Row 2: Ch 5, cluster in top of cluster. Turn.

Repeat row 2 until you have reached the desired length. Fasten off yarn. You can either sew the ends together or sew a button to one end. Weave in the loose ends.


Flower 
Round 1: Using yellow, make a magic ring (or) ch 2 and 8 sc in 2nd ch. Join with a sl st to 1st sc. Fasten off.
Round 2: Join red in any sc and sc in same sc, [ch 5, sc in next sc] 8 times.
Round 3: [sc, hdc, 3 dc, hdc, sc] in each 5ch-sp. Fasten off.
Round 4: Join pink and sc in each st around. Fasten off and weave in all the loose ends.


Sew the flower on the headband.


Happy weekend!
