Yarn and Stitches


Yarn


I used weight 4 acrylic yarn for this headband, but you could use whatever you want.


Basic Stitches Used (US Terminology)


Slip Knot: tutorial by SarahMaker

  1. Create a slip knot on your crochet hook.

  2. Yarn over and pull through the slip knot loop, creating a new loop on your hook. This is the first chain stitch.

  3. Repeat these steps to create additional chain stitches: Yarn over, then draw the yarn over through the last loop on your hook to form a new chain stitch.
  1. Insert Hook: Insert the crochet hook into the stitch.

  2. Yarn Over (YO): Yarn over by bringing the yarn over the hook from the back to the front. The yarn should be positioned above the hook.

  3. Pull Through: Pull the yarn through the stitch. You should now have two loops on the hook.

  4. Yarn Over and Pull Through Both Loops: Yarn over again and pull through both loops on the hook. This completes one single crochet stitch.

  5. Repeat: To continue making single crochet stitches, insert the hook into the next chain, yarn over and pull through, then yarn over and pull through both loops on the hook.

  6. End of Row: When you reach the end of the row, you’ll typically work a turning chain (usually one chain for a single crochet) before you start the next row. This turning chain helps create the proper height for the next row of stitches.
  1. Insert Hook: Insert your crochet hook into the stitch that you want to create the slip stitch in.

  2. Yarn Over and Pull Through: Yarn over (wrap the yarn around the hook from back to front), and then pull the yarn through the stitch and through the loop on your hook in one motion. This is different from other crochet stitches, as you’re not creating any additional loops on the hook.


Slip stitches are used to join rounds, close gaps, or move your hook to a different location within your work.

When finishing an amigurumi piece, you’ll need to fasten off to secure the last stitch.

Cut the working yarn, leaving a tail, and pull the tail through the last loop on the hook, tightening it to secure the stitch.

Here’s a helpful video tutorial.

How to Crochet a Cloud Headband Steps

Cloud Headband with Adult and Child Sizes text

Notes:

If it’s too tight you can always do a couple SC rows on one of the ends to lengthen it before slip stitching together.

The cloud is made with this sequence: 
slip stitch
skip 1 stitch
5 DC in the stitch right after the skipped one
skip a stitch
repeat from beginning

Either put the cloud stitch into the corner when you reach it or SC around it to get to the other side of the headband.



Steps:



Start with a base chain, I did 64 stitches long. Make it so that it can wrap around your head comfortably.

R1: SC across your base chain


R2: Make the cloud stitch across the front and back of the headband.


Cloud stitch:
slip stitch
skip 1 stitch
5 DC in the stitch right after the skipped one
skip a stitch
repeat from beginning


Put the two ends together and slip stitch them together.
