The headband pattern is inspired by the vibrant and colourful headgear of flowers of the Drokpa community of Ladakh region in the Indian Himalayas. This Boho crochet pattern is vibrant, snug, perfect for all seasons except summer. To wear it in summer, crochet in cotton. Base is made in a combination of sc, dc and trellis like stitch pattern. It is deceptively simple. Attach as many crochet flowers and leaves as you like. In fact, the more, the merrier.
