I just love you ladies on here! You have such great ideas! I agree princess6860504 this would really be striking done up in white with maybe a metallic silver thread and a deep scarlet red. I could wear it with my little black dress and it would be really gorgeous! I could also make them in multiple colors to match colors in my wardrobe and when you add in the fact that you can make them with and without the flower that's quite a bit of variation!

I feel like I have won the lottery today with all of the headband patterns that I have found. It will soon be back to school time and all the neighborhood girls will be getting their first day of school outfits picked out. They all know that I can make headbands so I will be getting very busy very soon.

Armed with the basic beginner knowledge of single crochets and half double crochets, you too can make this very pretty flower headband! The teal and seafoam color combo makes it very beachy and tropical vacation friendly. Frankly, if you wanted to, you could even change it up to a deep scarlet red and a winter white for a very classy holiday look. It will look like a poinsettia!
