In crochet, I have found that using simple stitches with a little tweak here and there can produce some of the most unique and eye-catching designs.

This turban style crochet headband is a simple yet stylish accessory, and the best part is IT IS REVERSIBLE. I did not intend for it to be, but after stitching it together I realized it could be worn both ways. What a win!

You might find yourself making lots and lots of this headband for gifting in the coming months. It is a wonderful slow fashion accessory for styling.

How did the Turban Style Crochet Headband come to be? I feel like I need to share this with you to maybe inspire someone? I had just spent weeks working on a design that I ended up not being happy with. Even though I had put out a tester call, I felt no joy about this project. See photo below.

I tried, but the more I looked at it, the more dejected I felt about spending so much time which felt like a waste. The design itself is great, but the colours and the yarn put me off. Oh well! I learnt a lesson there.

Anyhow, I decided not to dwell on it any longer. So I began working on this headband while watching American Barbeque Showdown. I wasn’t sure of what the headband should look like, my brain already felt scrambled at this point. After a few tries and brainstorming I decided on a stitch and carried on from there.

Thus, I spent the weekend making these fun turban style crochet headbands, writing and editing the patterns too. Good thing I de-stressed by picking up another project, right? haha.
