Rustic Chunky Headband – Free Crochet Pattern

My good friend Courtney just celebrated her birthday! I asked her if she wanted a hat, (as a joke since I was in a hat-making frenzy), but she said she wanted a headband instead. She also wanted it to match the Rustic Chunky Button Cowl that I gave her for Christmas. So, I whipped up this quick and easy Rustic Chunky Headband! It is a great compliment to the Rustic Chunky Button Cowl with matching yarn and buttons. I hope you enjoy the pattern. Happy Crocheting!

Finish:

• Turn your work horizontally and place your buttons along Row 2 (I put one button on the beginning of the row and one at the end.)
• Using needle and thread (or yarn and yarn needle) sew buttons on.
• There are no button holes needed for the headband because of the nature of the stitches. You can button anywhere along the headband through the dc sts.
• Button the two ends of the headband together and turn so that the buttons are on the bottom. Find what looks like the center and pinch together. Sew the pinched center together with yarn and yarn needle. Weave ends.
