It doesn’t get much simpler than the Slip-Stitch Headband. This project, as the name suggests, uses only slip-stitches and can be completed in a couple of hours. It has a knitted look and requires only basic construction. The oval shape that the headband crochets up into simply needs to be sewn together with a yarn needle for a cinched effect.

The headbands pictured are made using Knit Picks’ Biggo Yarn in Dove Heather (grey) and Carnelian Heather (red) using a 10 mm crochet hook. You can make at least two headbands using one skein. It is easy to adjust the starting chain depending on the size of the headband desired and you can determine the thickness of the band as well. Make sure to keep a loose gauge.

It is optional to add a pendant, brooch or a crocheted bow or flower.
