Pebble Bobbles Headband – Crochet Pattern Review

I pattern tested this for my friend Rebeckah of Rebeckah’s Treasures. I am always blown away at her creativity, and the energy and detail she puts into each of her patterns and projects. I had fun testing this pattern out, and didn’t want to take off the headband once I was finished. I chose to work it in one of my favorite colors, hoping it would match some new shirts that I recently bought, but the color is just a little darker – just means I need to match some more in other colors 🙂

Are you a raveler? If so, make sure to favorite this Pebble Bobble Headband and link up your project to it!

Materials I Used:

– Small Amount of Aunt Lydia’s Classic #10 Thread in the Burgundy colorway

– D3mm Crochet Hook

– #20 Tapestry Needle for Weaving

– 4.5mm & H8/5mm Crochet Hooks (optional – for Part 1)
– Pebble Bobbles Headband, Paid Crochet Pattern from Rebeckah’s Treasures

Material Notes:
Yarn Alternatives: Artiste #10 Cotton Crochet Thread.

Time Spent:

I had mine finished in just under an hour.

Measurements:

1 7/8″ Wide by 14.5″ Long (See Notes about Length)

Pattern Notes:

After working Part 1, I pulled out my H8/5mm hook to shape the tube, then I used my 4.5mm hook to pull the rubber band through. Probably much easier to hook a safety pin around the rubber band and pull through, but because I didn’t have one, the hook worked too.

The pattern is very detailed with suggestions for starting stitches. I wanted a thinner headband so I started with 13 single crochet onto the band, which left me with five and four bobbles, respectively. I worked seven repeats plus rows 2, 3 and 4 again for a total of 32 rows to equal 14.5″ long (including the band). I did not work mine as long as I should have – I forgot to add in an extra 2.5″ for the band. I did not realize this mistake until after I sewed in my ends. It was a little tight at the back of my neck at first, but quickly loosened up. I was surprised how well it stretched to fit, but haven made a few headbands now (other reviews to come), I would make it to 15.5″ long (including the band).

At the end, I chained 1 and turned. Then I folded the work as to work across, and I did so as the pattern stated working onto the other side of the band. Once across, I fastened off, and turned my piece so the bobbles were facing on the right side.

Overall, this is a great tutorial chalk full of lots of helpful information and photos, and the pattern is really easy to follow and memorize and produces a beautiful headband. I can’t wait to bust out thread from my stash and make a bunch more in other colors!

With so many size, yarn type and color options, I would love to see them! Please share your photos on my EyeLoveKnots Facebook page, or join the EyeLoveKnots Crafting Community to share your creations, and see what other’s are up to!
