PATTERN NOTES The headband is worked in the round, starting with a joined foundation chain and built up in joined rounds. An additional round of single crochet is added along the starting chain to finish the opposite edge. The tie is worked separately in an oval around a foundation chain. Turning chains do not count as stitches unless otherwise stated. When ending a round with a slip stitch, the next round typically begins in the same stitch as the slip stitch. Repeats are marked with square brackets [ ] and followed by the number of times to repeat. Example: [1 sc, sc inc] x 3 Stitch changes and sequence instructions are separated by commas. Example: 1 sc, sc inc, 4 sc means: 1 single crochet in the first stitch, 2 single crochets in the next stitch (increase), 1 single crochet in each of the next 4 stitches.
