The Glacier Twist Headband is the perfect beginner crochet pattern. It uses only basic crochet stitches and works up quickly in super bulky weight yarn. The headband is crocheted by making a large rectangle big enough to fit around your head.
The original yarn I used to crochet this headband is now discontinued. I worked up the pattern in new yarn and I’ve suggested other suitable alternatives for this headband crochet pattern. If you loved Sugar Bush Yarns Chill I still have a few kits left in my shop HERE
