The Westwood Headband is a beginner-friendly, textured headband that pinches in the front. Comprised almost entirely of the double crochet stitch, the dynamic nature of this basketweave stitch pattern is sure keep your interest from start to finish. Because it is worked in one long rectangle, you are welcome to use any yarn weight by simply adjusting the beginning chain to establish the width of your headband.
The small, rectangular accent piece is worked last and wrapped around your main headband. This pinched detail is intended to be worn in the front to help frame the face while simultaneously hiding the seam, making this piece look completely seamless.
