American Flag Headband Free Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

American Flag Headband
Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs


You can make this headband with Sport Weight
 yarn for a light weight Headband,
 or You can use Worsted Weight yarn (4)
for thicker Ear Warmers.

The Pattern is written for an adult head, but it is easily
 adjusted for smaller heads. By using the 
Foundation Double Crochet 
you get a nice stretchy edge, that fits great!


This fun striped headband would also be great for
 sport team colors, school colors and even 
would be awesome in neon colors.
Oh, And do not forget the reflective yarns!
