Crocheted headbands

April 17th, 2008

Mystery crocheted things

I’ve made a bunch of crocheted headbands in the past few months. First I made some for my friend Brenda, who wore one of them when her mom, sister-in-law Heather, and nieces were visiting. Heather, who is also a friend of mine, noticed the headband and liked it. Brenda mentioned that to me, and I thought it would be fun to surprise them all with some headbands. So I did.

I also made a headband for One Scrappy Gal’s daughter, and she liked it and asked me to make more in assorted colors. So I did. (Aileen, they’re in my Etsy shop waiting for you!)

Modeling all five headbands at once
Here I am modeling all five headbands at once, mainly because I thought it would make Aileen giggle.

Then, because I was making headbands and the movie I was watching wasn’t over yet, I made one more and put it in my Etsy shop. Edited to add: Thanks for your purchase, BeachMama!

I have plans to make more, maybe even some for myself. Because even though, when I started making these, I didn’t consider myself a headband girl, I’ve changed my mind.

These things really are comfortable.

    They are VERY comfortable. I have kept my hair down every day, because of the headbands. Shawn will appreciate that.

    Love the shot of you wearing all 5!

    Can’t wait for them to arrive. I might “borrow” them from Sammy too. :)

    Do you make them in baby sizes? We’ve been trying to find headbands for Bri since her hair is long enough to tickle her eyes now. Most of the infant ones I’ve found are too small. I like the idea of the strings at the end so I could adjust it for her ever-growing noggin’ head!

    OK, you totally rock the headband!
    I want one, can you make me one and put it in your etsy shop…I have yet to make my first etsy purchase and this would be a great way to figure the process out. Can I pick the color I want?

  8. OMSH Says:

    I’m with Anna - you are rockin’ the headband, but I must say I prefer you in multiples. Now THAT is rockin’ the headband!

    They are so cute! Next paycheck I need to pick up one. It will be perfect for summer. Only problem will be picking out which color!

    Those are gorgeous! I knit and want to learn to crochet, but knitting headbands never occurred to me. Thanks for the inspiration!
