How to Crochet a Super Wide Head Warmer

Crochet yourself some warmth for the winter.

Keeping your head warm is the key to surviving a blisteringly cold winter. For those with crocheting skills, this solution can take form in many different projects. A head warmer is one of these solutions. As it warms both the ears and around the face, it is an effective garment for cold weather. Crochet a wide head warmer to keep your head as insulated as possible.

Things You'll Need

• Size F crochet needle
• Yarn

Instructions

1. Chain 20 stitches. If you would like the headband to be even wider, chain more stitches.

2. Complete round one by half double crochet stitching in each stitch. Chain one, then turn. For round two, insert the hook in the loop below where the hook usually enters. Then stitch a double crochet stitch. At the end of the row, chain one and turn.

3. Repeat the same pattern from rows one and two until the piece measures 21 inches, or the desired length. Slip stitch the ends together to create the headband.
