This headband is named after the Cliffrose Shrub--one or my favorite plants while living in Grand Canyon National Park. It focuses on the Star and Berry Stitches to resemble the five petal flowers and berries that grow on the Cliffrose Shrub. This headband is ideal for beginners looking to practice new stitches, and makes a wonderful afternoon project for an advanced crocheter.
