6. Rosey’s Headband

Who knew that a beginner crochet pattern could look this good? When you work single crochet stitches into the back loops only you get a whole new look. It’s ridged, it’s simple, and yet it’s also super sophisticated. Don’t forget the fancy wooden button and you’ve got yourself one posh headband.
