This crocheted winter headband would be great as a gift or as something to make for your own ears to keep them warm.
This headband works up quick and only uses on kind of stitch repeated in rows. The hardest part of this project is stitching together the twist in the front. I included lots of photos to help anyone that hasn’t done the twist finish before so it should still be a breeze.

This project works up super fast and is easy to crochet. It is also easily customizable if you want a tighter or looser fit.
I am in love with the yarn I chose for this project. It is incredibly soft and the finished project almost feels squishy so I can’t imagine it ever hurting my ears over time. I love how you can’t even tell this is crocheted. There isn’t any stitch definition and I actually really liked that for this project because I think it makes the headband look even fluffier.
