I made this flower for the stretchy baby headband. I like how rounded the tops of the petals turned out.
Supplies:
Worsted weight yarn (to make the flower approx 2 inches. You can use any other weight yarn to make it bigger or smaller)
Hook size called for
Opt yarn needle to sew on.
Abbreviations:
Ch - chain
Sl st - slip stitch
Dc - double crochet
Special Stitch:
Cluster - Make a dc within one step of completion (2 loops on hook). Make two more (4 loops on hook). YO, pull through all 4 loops on hook.
Instructions:
Magic Ring. Inside ring *Ch 2. Cluster. Ch 2, sl st. Repeat from * 4 times. Sl st to magic ring, finish off. Pull magic ring tight. Use tails to sew flower on.

another idea for stretch-ability is use "hat elastic" which is really just the thread you use for children's necklaces to string beads on. What I use is Stretch Magic 1.5 mm bead & jewelry cord
ReplyDeleteoops, I forgot to say I just thread it through the headband or bottom of a hat with a blunt needle and tie it to make it a little snugger.
