GAUGE:
One Headband Strip = 1 in. [2.5 cm] wide. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Braided Headband Reviewed by carole cheskay on 2009-03-12
I made this headband and I changed the length to 19" and instead of using ribbon on each end I sewed the two ends together. It was very easy and comfortable to wear.
