Pattern: Pretty Crochet Crown Headband
Step 1: Measure & Chain
Measure around the wearer’s head (usually about 18–22 inches for adults). Now chain enough stitches to match that length — just make sure the number is divisible by 5 + 1. For example, 51 chains works well.
Step 2: First Row (Base Row)
-
Turn your work, and single crochet (sc) into the second chain from the hook.
-
Continue sc in each chain across the row.
-
Chain 1 and turn.
Step 3: Second Row (Foundation)
-
Work 1 single crochet in each stitch across.
-
This row gives your crown a nice structure.
-
Chain 1 and turn.
Step 4: Crown Points (Picot Crown Edging)
Now we form the peaks of the crown:
-
(sc in next stitch, skip 1 stitch, 5 dc in next stitch, skip 1 stitch) — repeat from * to * across the row.
-
End with a sc in the last stitch.
-
Fasten off and weave in ends.
Step 5: Finishing the Headband
-
Fold the crown into a circle and use the tapestry needle to sew the ends together securely.
-
Make sure the peaks are upright and symmetrical.
Optional Add-Ons
-
Add beads to the tips of each peak using a glue gun or by sewing.
-
Use metallic yarn for a sparkly, royal finish.
-
For little ones, try pastel cotton yarns for a soft and comfortable feel.
✨ Tips for Success
-
Block your finished crown headband with steam or by pinning and spraying lightly with water to shape it neatly.
-
If making for a baby or toddler, use soft cotton yarn to avoid skin irritation.
-
Make matching ones for family or party guests!
