What I love about this free knit-look headband crochet pattern is that it has a cinched center, allowing it to be wider around the ears but narrower near the face. It also features a pretty crochet stitch that is incredibly easy to work and results in a knit-look fabric. This crochet headband is easy to crochet and elegant to wear.

Notes
The headband stitches are worked into the “extra” loop of the half double crochet stitches from the round below. This extra loop sits in the back, behind the stitch. Insert your hook into that loop only, leaving the two front loops unworked.
