1st PIECE
Ch an odd number that measures approximately 1 (1.25, 1.5)”. (Example: 9 chs)
ROW 1: turn your ch and work into the back loop, sc in bl of 2nd ch from hook, dc in bl of next ch, *sc in bl of next ch, dc in bl of next ch*, repeat ** across, turn (St count should be an even #. Example: 8 sts)
ROW 2: ch 1 (never counts as st), *sc, dc*, repeat ** across, turn
Repeat ROW 2 until headband measures 4 (5, 6)”. Do not turn your work on the last row!
NEXT ROW: You will now be connecting the first row and current row by working across them both. To do so, fold the bottom (row 1) up to the current row.
NEXT ROW (CONTINUED): working under 2 loops of each ch *sc, dc*, repeat ** across, turn
NOTE: Your st count has now doubled. (Example: I went from 8 sts to 16 sts.)
Repeat ROW 2 until 1st piece measures C (Example: 9”) and f/o leaving a 7″ tail.
2nd Piece
With a new strand of yarn, ch the same # of times you did for the first piece.
ROW 1: turn your ch and work into the back loops, sc in bl of 2nd ch from hook, dc in bl of next ch, *sc in bl of next ch, dc in bl of next ch*, repeat ** across, turn
ROW 2: ch 1 (never counts as st), *sc, dc*, repeat ** across, turn
Repeat ROW 2 until headband measures 6″. Do not turn your work on the last row!
You will now be intertwining the 1st piece and the 2nd piece. To do so, slide ROW 1 of the 2nd piece through the loop on first piece and flip back towards current working row. (See next example photos.)
You will now be connecting the first row and current row of the 2nd piece by working across them both. To do so, work under 2 loops of each ch *sc, dc*, repeat ** across, turn (See next example photo.)
Note: Your st count has now doubled. (Example: I went from 8 sts to 16 sts)
ROW 1: ch 1, *sc, dc*, repeat ** across, turn
Repeat ROW 1 same # of times you did for the 1st piece and f/o. (Example: I worked 22 rows after the loop on the first piece, so I will work 22 rows after the loop for the 2nd piece.)
FINISHING
Flip your headband to the side you want to be seen. Fold in half and whip stitch or slst the ends together. Weave in all ends and wear!
