10 Minute Crochet Headband Pattern
If you're short on time but want to make something completely unique, follow this 10 Minute Crochet Headband Pattern and create something completely unique. This project is perfect for beginners and can be worn for any occasion. You only need three strands of yarn and a crochet hook to complete this project, so you can make it on a train or during a car trip. While you're at it, make one for all of your favorite ladies - it's a great gift option.
Materials:
- 3 colors of yarn (or you could do all the same color if you’d like) – I used a mix of yarns: Redheart Soft in white, Caron Simply Soft in light and dark purple.
- Crochet Hook – US I9/5.5 mm.
- Scissors
Instructions:
Ch = chain, sl st = slip stitch (U.S.)
- Measure the head of the person you are making the headband for.
- Leaving at least a 6″ tail of yarn, using the chain stitch, make a chain 3″ less than your desired length. Keep your tension consistent along the entire chain – medium to firm tension.
- Now add in your new color, making sure to leave at least a 6″ tail of yarn (if you aren’t sure how to add in a new yarn color into your stitches please watch this great video tutorial here - the video shows how to change colors using a single crochet stitch but the concept is the exactly the same for the chain stitch). Once you change to your new color, cut off you end of yarn from the first chain you made so that there is at least a 6″ tail.
- Chain the new colour until it’s the same length as the first ( to check, grab the end where the 2 colors were joined, hold the cut ends and fold the second color over so that the 2 chains are now side by side).
- When the 2 chains are the same length, connect them by making a slip stitch into the last stitch of the first chain.
- Add in the third chain color by following steps 3 – 5.
- Trim the final color yarn end so that there is at least a 6″ tail.
- Take the 3 loose cut ends and braid them together and then tie off with a knot on the end. Repeat again on the other end.

This would be the perfect project for anyone! I love all the areas for creativity with projects like this. You can use any color you like, which makes it unique to you or the person you are giving it to. I love how easy the pattern is to follow, and that you can make it on the go with minimal fuss.

what a nice and easy but satisfying project idea for the Girl Scouts or youth groups out there. If you have NEVER picked up a hook and yarn in your life, you can most likely do this on your own. Hey, we all gotta start somewhere! Once you get the hang of it you'll be making tons of these for all your friends and to match all your outfits.

This would be a wonderful project for my beginners crochet class to learn how to crochet. It is a quick project, and it would be worked up quickly so they could see their finished project quickly. I think this item would also be a great project for my craft table.
