DIY: The Garden Crochet Twine Headband.

This headband was inspired by flower crowns and I wanted to emulate the same earthy feel  by utilizing twine in this headband. The very best part of this crochet twine strand, is that you can wear it in numerous fashions. My personal favorite is the side twist braid with the strand intertwined throughout your hair. Creates a bit of whimsy to everyday life!
 The Ingredients:
>> Scissors
>> Crochet hook (G/6-4.25MM)
>> 1 Skein of Yarn (White, Caron Simply Soft/Twine)


Crochet Abbreviations: 
HDC= half double crochet 
SS= slip stitch
CH= chain  
ST(S) = stitch(es)  

From Left to Right:
CH 101 (using the twine)
 In the 51st CH 
Insert the white yarn by SS
CH 2, HDC into the same ST
SS into the same stitch
CH 2, HDC into the same ST
SS into the same stitch
CH 2, HDC into the same ST
SS into the same stitch
CH 2, HDC into the same ST
SS and cut off.
You will create a total of 12 of these little bundles. 
By skipping two STS on both sides of the originally placed bundle.

You will also create two bundles at the beginning and end of the chain.
Have fun creating!
