Pattern Overview:

This headband features a ribbing texture which resembles knitting more than crocheting.
Inspired by Bowen Island and the beauty of British Columbia, Canada.

Pattern Instructions:

Start with a Slip Knot:

Create a simple slip knot.
Insert your hook and pull tight.

Chain 81 Stitches:

Yarn over and pull through to chain. Repeat until you have 81 chains.

Row 1 - Slip Stitches and Single Crochets:

Start in the second chain from the hook, working either in the chain or the back bump for a cleaner edge.
Do 15 slip stitches (insert hook, yarn over, and pull through all loops).
Place a stitch marker on the last slip stitch.
Do 50 single crochets (insert hook into the next loop, yarn over, pull through, two loops on hook, yarn over, pull through both loops).
Finish the row with another 15 slip stitches.
Chain one and turn.

Row 2 - Working in the Loops:

15 slip stitches working in the front Loop only.
Use a stitch marker to mark the last slip stitch.
50 single crochets, but with a modification: work in the back horizontal loop (back bump) behind the stitch. This creates the ribbed texture.
Finish with another 15 slip stitches in the front loop only.
Chain one and turn.

Repeat and Alternate Rows:

Continue the pattern from Row 2, altering each row between 50 single crochets and 50 modified single crochets with the ribbed texture.

Completion:

After 12 rows (or however wide you want your headband, the last row should end with modified single crochets for a uniform end.
To finish, cut a long yarn tail after the last chain.
Pull the tail through the final loop and tighten to secure.
