The Willow Headband is a lush, super soft piece that is a quick work up with 5 rows for a medium width. Hobby Lobby’s “I Love This Yarn” is a super soft 4 ply medium worsted weight yarn that is perfect for a comfortable piece! The color is Spring Willow, thus the name of both the headband and it’s matching Willow Wrap in a separate pattern.

It’s an ombre (color changing) yarn consisting of: red, purple, off white, brown, and olive green. The set is made to be worn together. I used at least about one quarter of a 5 oz/252 yd. skein for the headband, and the wrap took 2 1/2 skeins out of 3, so you can make both with 3 whole skeins and have a little left.

I use all crochet standards only on my easy to follow patterns. There are good notes on both pieces and the headband works up in approx an hour. It fits a standard adult 22” head size but is easily adjustable per the pattern. The pattern level is easy for both pieces, but not boring, just relax and enjoy creating!
