I’ve never timed myself crocheting. Largely in part because it is rare for me to start and finish a project on the spot. I’ve got boys running around, hello!. And even when they’re asleep, I’m always working on something else, and because I’ve decided to take my health seriously this year, I try to rest at the approriate time and not crochet into the wee hours of the morning.
So, back to the timing (look at how I just trailed off. haha). I decided to time myself, even with distractions and the fact that I’m not such a fast crocheter, it came to about 23 minutes. So imagine if you took out time to crochet this with no distractions? You’d probably finish in half the time. Just saying!
With just two rounds, any beginner can make this baby headband. The flower pattern can be found here.

I feel like I’m missing something here Ch 57 Join to 1st chain- note that this 1st chain counts as a stitch
I Have 19 dc bobbles in row 1 and 20 on row 2
Hi, could you check again to see whether you made an extra bobble somewhere on row 2? Your last bobble on row 2 should be between 2 bobbles before you chain 2 and join. Let me know if that works?
Rose, We are expecting our first great-grandchild (girl) the end of May!! I’m having such fun, I’ve made blankets, stuffed toys and now I’m going to start on head bands!! Thank you so much for the patterns and inspiration! Think I’ll do one set of mommy/baby so they can look alike!!
ah, what wonderful new. I can imagine your excitement. A mommy and aby set would look great- what a pretty picture it would make. thank you so much for topping by and sharing your thoughts.
I did not see the first * in rows 1 and 2. Not sure where to start repeat. Thank you for your help.
Thank you for pointing that out. Correction has been made.
