Crochet Headband Free Pattern- Crossroads Headband
The Crossroads Headband is a beautiful crochet headband pattern that uses simple cable stitching to create a super cute headband!
You can use any worsted weight yarn for this crochet headband. I used Furls Crochet Wander yarn for the sample pictured above. It’s a lovely worsted weight acrylic yarn that has a lot of different color choices!
The Crossroads Headband crochet pattern comes with instructions for just one size, but in the notes section it gives you instructions on how to adjust the length to fit anyone! Enjoy!

I made the crossroad headband and love it. I would like to make it without the button. Have you written this pattern so it does not require a button?
No, this is the only version of the pattern there is.
Thank you for answering. I really like the design.
