The texture of the headband is made by working a slip stitch (slst) and a Half Double Crochet (hdc) into the SAME space, and on the alternate rows, you will make the 2 sts, (slst, hdc) BOTH stitches are worked into the SLIP STITCH of the Row before.
TO crochet this headband to fit you.
LENGTH of Crochet Headband - The chain at the start must fit around your head. These are the measurements that I use to crochet headbands.
You will make your Chain 1 INCH less than the desired SIZE measurement
I was crocheting this headband for a Medium Adult - so I will chain a length of 19 inches (DO NOT STRETCH the chain when measuring!)
WIDTH of a crochet Headband :
If you want to make an adult-sized warmer that fits comfortably, aim for a width between 3.5 inches for smaller sizes, approximately 4 inches for medium sizes, and 5 inches for larger sizes.
A great starting point for your crochet ear warmers could be a standard width of 3.5 inches but don't hesitate to adjust the width based on your personal preference and the stitch pattern you plan to use.
To ensure a cozy fit, and make sure that the ear warmer is slightly wider than your ears
For this Earwamrer I will make mine 5 Inches WIDE. I used a nice Thick Yarn for this black one and its super cosy
NOTE: You Can USE ANY YARN ANY HOOK to crochet this ear warmer
