How To Crochet Lacy Headband
Welcome to this detailed guide on making a beautiful crochet headband. This project is suitable for both beginners and experienced enthusiasts. Follow along, step by step, to create an elegant headband perfect for various occasions.
Materials Needed
- Cotonian yarn
- 3mm crochet hook
- Scissors
Step By step Guide
Step 1: Creating the Foundation Chain
- Start with a Slip Knot: Use your yarn to create a simple slip knot.
- Make the Chains: Measure from one ear to another to determine the length needed. Typically, this will be around 40 centimeters. Make the chains slightly loose, as they will contract slightly when crocheted.
- Measure Properly: Continue making chains until you reach the desired length, approximately 40-43 centimeters to account for shrinkage.
Step 2: First Row - Double Crochets
- Begin with Additional Chains: Add two more chains to start your first row of double crochets.
- Double Crochet Across: Skip one chain, and make a double crochet in the next. Make one chain, skip one chain, and insert a double crochet in the next. Repeat this pattern across the entire first row.
Step 3: Second Row - Continue Double Crochets
- Start the Row: Turn your work and chain three (two for the first double crochet and one for the space).
- Double Crochet in the Spaces: Insert your hook into the spaces created by the previous row (not into the stitches). Continue the pattern of one chain, one skipped space, and one double crochet.
Step 4: Third Row - Repeat the Pattern
- Turn and Chain: Again, turn your work, chain three, and continue the double crochet pattern.
- Complete the Row: Follow the same method—double crochet in the spaces, chain one, skip one—until you finish the third row.
Step 5: Single Crochet Edging
- Edge the Headband: Once the third row is completed, make single crochets all around the edges of the headband, ensuring neatness.
- Corners: At the corners, make one chain and reinsert your hook into the same space to maintain a square and tidy corner.
Step 6: Creating the Floral Pattern
- Position for Florals: Start from a corner on the front side of the headband.
- Begin the Petals: Chain four, skip two chains and insert a single stitch into the third. Repeat this four times around, ensuring flat, not ruffled, spaces.
- Turn and Triple Crochet: Yarn over twice, skip a space, and start making triple crochets in each space - chain four in between. The final set should have only one triple crochet as the starting chain four counts as one.
Step 7: Finishing the Petals
- Double Crochets in Spaces: On the front side, make seven double crochets in each space created by your triple crochets and secure with single stitches between each petal.
- Repeat: Repeat this pattern until the end of the row and secure the last petal with a single crochet.
Step 8: Completing and Detailing the Headband
- Final Touches: Make single stitches along the remaining edges to ensure everything is neat. Repeat the floral pattern as needed.
- Laces: Create chains (25 cm long) at both ends of the headband for tying. Make single stitches back along these chains.
