A Free Crochet Pattern
It's March. That means it is time to start switching over to the warmer weather patterns. Before I know it my girls will be home for Summer vacation and I will have less time to get things done. In the Summer I love working on smaller projects that don't take up a lot of time, or on projects that are made of cotton and lighter weight yarns.
This headband pattern uses a size 3 yarn and it is a simple lace pattern that keeps it light and airy. I'm fairly certain an ambitious beginner could complete this head band. The stitches are simple and the counts never change. I hope you enjoy making this textured headband.
