Headbands Galore!

Woo-hoo, new project!

All colors and sizes!

Toning it down a little bit...Here are some lovely headbands that I made. I'm told they're fashionable by people that are, so I decided to trust them (I know literally nothing about fashion.) This was a very simple project, after I learned the double crochet stitch used in the pattern. Each headband took around 4 hours to complete, and that might be an over-exaggeration. This piece is made in two parts; the band and the knot.

 Here's a little closer shot of the knots.

I found the pattern for the headband here: http://allaboutami.tumblr.com/post/18110601640/knottedheadband

It was easy to follow, but I must crochet tighter than the author of the pattern because I had to use 75-80 chain stitches for the headband, and about 12 for the knot. Otherwise, I don't have too much to say about this project. I am, however, still working on my Hogwarts bracelets. I've finished Gryffindor, Ravenclaw is ten rows away from being done, and then it's just Hufflepuff and Slytherin left!
