Blossom Stitch Crochet Twisted Headband
This crochet twisted headband pattern is perfect for spring or fall weather when it’s cold, but not too cold! It is a nice alternative to a hat, and can be worn to hold the hair back or to keep your ears and forehead nice and cozy!
This crochet headband pattern can be worked up in a small amount of yarn, which makes it an ideal pattern for stashbusting. Plus, the size is adjustable, making it easy to make up a whole bunch for gifts.
Blossom Stitch Crochet Twisted Headband
The stitch used here is the Crochet Blossom Stitch. It has a bit of an open lace. The pattern uses basic crochet stitches and can be replicated by beginners who are comfortable with the basics and know how to read a pattern.
It is worked in rows to the size you want, and then the ends are sewn together to make the twist.

How Do You Sew A Twisted Headband Together?
Step 1
To sew the twist, fold the band lengthwise with the Right Sides together and the Wrong Sides facing the outside.
Step 2
Layer the band as shown so that the edges overlap from the center. You can place your stitch markers in the middle if you like. I just eyeballed it, because you can adjust it in Step 5 as needed.
Step 3
Then fold one end over the other as shown below.
Step 4
Next, fold the second end over so that the ends interlock.
Step 5
You should have four layers. Make adjustments as needed to make sure everything is centered evenly.
Step 6
With your tail end of the yarn, and using a tapestry needle, sew across making sure to go through all four layers.
Step 7
Turn right side out to hide the seam. Easy Peasy!!!
