1000357798.jpg

Hi lovers of crochet I believe you have a lovely day trust me I'm up this week for learning club. You guys already know that I like creativity especially things that you have to do with your hands and so this week I decided to create something for my beloved baby girl. So I thought of something and I decided to make her a hair band.

In crochet wall, there are different types of hair band and of course there are different ways to achieve the difference styles of hair bands that is available different crochet style, different knitting, different wool and of course different sizes.

So I first of all went to market to search for a band that fit her head which is a small band to do the work and I choose a beautiful colour pink and brown yarn.

To achieve this I gather my tools which are;

Tools

  • Yarn
  • Crochet needle
  • Gum
  • a pair of scissors

First step


So I started with a chain which is the base of most crochet and if you want to learn crochet you need to know how to make chain. I made this chain to cover the band. Of course there are other ways you can take to cover this band without starting from a chain but I decided to use this style today which is easy for anyone who wants to learn how I make it.

You can watch the video to see how I made it.

I did not use a tape to measure the band but I measure it as I made the chain so you can see it from the video how I take my measurements.
So after making a chain, I continue with making two more lines of double stitches and I close it with a slip.

From the video I also showed how I cover the band with the crochet, after crocheting isa long two lines of double stitches, I wrap it on the band and close it up with a single stitch.


Second step

The next thing I made was a design of two round single stitch to put on top of the band to make it look beautiful. This is exactly how it look but the design has not finish.

So from the video I should have made this circular designed I started with a circle, then a double stitches in the circle. After that I also make another lines of double stitches then on each hole I made two double stitch in it so that it will be flat rather than being curvy.

I mixed the colour to make it beautiful, I used the brown to make 1 row and the pink to stitch another row.


Third step


The third step, I finally stitched a bow to add with the design of the headband. The ball was easy to make also because I started with a stitch and then four lines of double crochet and I squeezed the middle part to make it form a beautiful pink bow.
