Free Pattern: Ribbed Headband Earwarmer



FREE PATTERN: Simple Ribbed Headband Earwarmer

I whipped up this back loop simple ribbed headband in under an hour, while watching Ellen.
I wanted to try it out with a decorative button and a rounded-end.
I used Lion Brand Vanna's Choice in Antique Rose and the photos come out more red but the actual colourway is a deep pink. I really like it and might keep it for myself...or put it on in my shop and make another one.
This pattern only takes about 1/4 of a Vanna's Choice skein.

 Materials:
     H hook
     1/4 Skein Vanna's Choice worsted yarn (4 weight)
     oversized wood button (pictured is 38mm diameter)

    sc = single crochet
    hdc= half double crochet
    sl st = slip stitch

Row 1: Chain 1, skip first chain, sc across each chain, turn (12sts)
Row 2: Chain 1, skip first chain, sc across each st in back loop only, turn (12sts)
Row 3 and 4: Repeat Row 2, all sc's in back loops
