Awesome, Feona! You should post a picture!

I think I will make a few more. I need practice. I found some 100% cotton thread that is easy to work with. It doesn't stretch.


I think I will throw it in the washing maching and see what happenes to it.

My daughter is really into headbands, I should look into doing this for her.

Did you use a pattern? Or can you explain to me how you did it? I have crocheted in the past but it has been years!

By Feona on Sunday, January 9, 2005 - 10:00 am:

Oh no pattern it is really easy.

I got 100% cotton baby yarn from the michaels. It is comfortable head band and really teaches you quick how not to drop the last stitch like I was doing.

Just make it as thick as you want. It think I made mine 18 stiches long.

Then I just kept making sure it wasn't too big for my head.

then I closed it using the same crochet stitch.

You know I will look for a pattern.

You can make this warm with warm yarn.

Also this could be longer and be a neck muffle
