Bow Headband {Free Crochet Pattern}

Do you crochet for little girls? If not, you might want to find a little girl to crochet this adorable bow headband for! I mean, come on... what little girl wouldn't want it?

It is fun and cute and the perfect accessory for any outfit. You can make one in every color!

The headband is simple to make, just keep in mind, it has a lot of "give" to it, so you may want to experiment with going down one size. Check out my hat and headband size chart as a guide.
Use the headband to make this bow headband, or use it to attach the applique of your choice.
The same holds true for the bow. It makes a cute addition to a crochet dress or purse.
