Rainbow Headband for a Beautiful Girl

"Little girls dance their way into your heart, whirling on the tips of angel wings, scattering gold dust & kisses in our paths."
                  The above quote is so apt....you cannot elaborate more on it.In the last few years I have come in contact with so many beautiful little babies and although I am not partial against boys(I am a mom of one),girls hold a special little place in everyone's hearts.
Coming to the Headband.....,this is a headband I made for a beautiful little,smart girl "Mimi".She holds a very beautiful place in our heart.This headband was a small gift for her birthday.It's a simple crochet headband using cotton yarn specifically for crochet.The thread in itself is very beautiful...it contain's so many colors,when I saw it ,it felt right to be used for accessories for many outfits.                            

The pattern is as follows:-
1.Row 1-Make a row of 31 chains.(if you want to make a wider or narrower headband,increase or decrease the number of  chains.)
2.Row 2- Double crochet(DC) in second chain from hook ,leave 1 chain,then another DC in the next chain and so on.That means DC in alternate chains of the first row.
3.Row 3-90-Continue making DC as explained in Row 2.If you notice,I am saying row 3-90,You can increase or decrease the number of rows depending on the circumference of head.
4.To finish-Join the two ends of the headband using slip stich(SC) or threading a yarn needle and passing it through corresponding  ends of the headband.

  1. It was this precious gift to my daughter from Deepti. Each thread of the band helds so much love from my dearest friend to my baby. Deepti you are such a wonderful person with tons of qualities and an amazing heart to hold so much feelings for others.
