Spa Headband With Elastic
"This lacy spa crochet headband with elastic stretches to fit snugly around your head and is perfect to keep your hair back when doing home spa procedures. You’ll want to make them in all different colors! This filet crochet spa headband would make a great gift for someone who needs some self-care after several busy weeks of holiday prep. During spa time, when you’re doing a facial treatment, there’s no better way to hold back long hair than a soft cotton headband. This particular headband incorporates an elastic hair tie so it it stretches easily over messy buns and fits snugly to your head. This pattern is written in five sizes, from toddler to large adult. So if you know the head circumference of your recipient, that can help you make a perfectly-sized headband. This adorable crochet headband uses almost exclusively double crochets and chains in a simple repeat. It’s a great intro to the filet crochet technique and works up very quickly. Even a beginner crocheter can create this pattern relatively easily. And to help, I’ve included a full video tutorial as well."
