Crochet Headband Patterns
Crochet headband patterns make flat or twisted bands worn around the head, including wide ear warmers, turban-style twists, and baby bow headbands. A headband should be about two inches smaller than head circumference so it stays in place. Most use under 100 yards, and ribbed or stretchy stitches improve the fit.

How do you make a twisted crochet headband?
Make a twisted headband by crocheting a rectangle about 4 inches wide and 2 inches shorter than head circumference, folding it in half lengthwise around the ends to interlock them, and seaming the four layered edges together. Turn it right side out to hide the seam.
