Crochet Flower Headbands are so quick and easy to make. I’m aways looking for ways to use up my many partial skeins of yarn. It seems those partially used skeins keep multiplying. I hate to throw them away and sometimes there isn’t enough yarn to make a big or medium sized project. I saw these little stretchy headbands at my local Dollar Tree store. I liked them but they were just too plain. I decided to add some crochet flowers to the headbands to make them a little fancier. Here is what I came up with: Crochet Flower Headbands.
You can also just make the flowers and add them as embellishments on hats, scarfs, etc. I have included the link for a free video tutorial on the last page of this post for visual learners.
Supplies needed for your Crochet Flower Headbands:
Stretchy headbands (purchase at store near you)
