Crochet Easy Lacy Hairband Free Pattern: the inspiration

As you will have probably noticed, I absolutely love crochet headbands. I have already crocheted quite a few, including the Romantic Lilac Headband which has been a huge success. Indeed, it seems crochet headbands are very popular! I know I absolutely love them. They are so feminine, yet have a definite Boho vibe that I love. They can be crocheted in lots of different colors, so you have plenty of options with the same design. Also, headbands are perfect for gifting!

This is a very feminine crochet headband

Do you love headbands as much as I do? I love the vibes of a crochet headband or scrunchie. Indeed, they immediately give off Boho vintage vibes. I can definitely imagine Stevie Nicks wearing one of these headbands!

This new design has been in the making for a while now. Indeed, I have wanted to create a thicker headband with a shell stitch edging for a while now. This is because I love the lacy, feminine vibes of these types of headbands. This crocheted hairband is so pretty and feminine, and looks fantastic with any outfit. Also, they are so convenient too!

Crochet Easy Lacy Hairband Free Pattern: the yarn

For this project, I used Wendy Supreme 100% luxury cotton DK yarn. I believe this yarn has been discontinued, which is why I will be giving you some substitutes for this project. The reason I used this yarn is that I still have not had time to organize my yarn stash, and could not find my “Summer” yarns this week-end. So I went with this classic cotton yarn which is a DK/Light 3 yarn which is so pretty! And it is very easy to substitute too.

My suggestion for substitutes are as follows: you can use any 100% cotton mercerized cotton of your choice for this project in the DK/Light 3 weight range. You can use Patons 100% cotton DK, Cascade Noble Cotton yarn, or Drops Muskat yarn. In any case, you can use any brand in your stash that you prefer, as this calls for a very classic 100% cotton DK yarn. So this is an added bonus if you wish to crochet this headband!

I hope you enjoy this easy crochet tutorial, let me know in the comments if you did.
