West Lynn Headwrap

Show off some retro flair with a chic headband that is both stylish and functional. Keep your ears warm and bust your stash at the same time! You only need a skein (less than 132 yards) to make this headwrap.

Materials:
1 skein of worsted weight yarn (Recommendations: Cascade 220 (Regular or Superwash), Berroco Vintage Worsted, Lion Brand Wool-Ease Worsted, Plymouth Encore Worsted, Plymouth Plymouth Worsted Merino Superwash, Classic Elite Portland Tweed)
US G (4mm) crochet hook
tapestry needles (for weaving in ends and seaming band)

Sizes:
Adult woman’s S/M(M/L)

Gauge:
4 dcs = 1″

Note:
I highly recommend you take the time to watch the videos and use the chainless foundation dc st to start this off. It’s super easy, and will ensure a nice, stretchy headwrap. You can start with making a foundation ch of 83+3 sts, but I find foundation chains to be rather taut. Stretchy is good for this project!

Pattern:

Wrap:
Using foundation dc method, make 78(84) dc sts (where the beginning ch3 counts as the first dc st).

Then join in the round.

Now you have a complete round of (78)84 dc sts (counting ch3 as first dc).

Rounds 2-7: Ch 3, dc in each dc to end. Join with top ch of ch3 at the beginning of the round with a sl st. (78)84 sts.
After 7th round, cut yarn, pull through, and fasten.

Band:
Using foundation dc method, make 5 dc sts (counting ch3 as first dc st).
Row 2-5: Dc in each dc. Ch 3, turn.

Finishing:
Weave in ends on wrap.
Put band around wrap, and seam ends of band together to make a loop. Center it around the joins of the round to conveniently hide them! Weave in ends on band.

Put on, feel très chic, and enjoy your cappuccino.
