The two-strand flower headband is another one of my early designs. Today, I’m happy to include it as a free pattern for the first time! This is a versatile design. Since it ties in the back, it can fit a variety of sizes, and the colorwork with the Irish crochet-inspired flower is eye-catching, but easy to do!

Adjust the sizing of this headband by modifying the size of the strap (but make sure you leave enough length for tying). You may also stop after the second flower layer for a smaller flower.
