The pattern is worked in rounds

This pattern consists of squares joined together to form a rectangle

Ch2 does count as st at the beginning of each row

Ch1 does not count as st at the beginning of each row

You can work this pattern with one color or multiple as you wish- I used two colors

If changing colors make sure to have a changing technique and weave your ends in. 

This pattern uses pattern repeats.


Instructions

Granny stitch squares – make 5

Round 1: Make a magic ring (or ch 4 and join with a sl st to form a ring).Ch 3 (counts as first dc here and throughout), 2 dc into the ring, ch 2, 3 dc into the ring repeat from * to * 2 more times. Ch 2 and sl st to the top of the beginning ch 3 to join. Pull the magic ring tight or weave in the yarn tail to secure the center.

Round 2: Sl st in the next 2 dc and into the ch-2 corner space. Ch 3, 2 dc in the same ch-2 space, ch 2, 3 dc in the next ch-2 space repeat from * to * until you reach the beginning corner. Ch 2 and sl st to the top of the beginning ch 3 to join.

Round 3: Sl st in the next 2 dc and into the ch-2 corner space. Ch 3, 2 dc in the same ch-2 space, ch 2, 3 dc in the next ch-2 space, ch 1, 3 dc in the next ch-2 space repeat from * to * until you reach the beginning corner. Ch 2, dc in the first ch-2 space of the corner (middle dc of the 3-dc group), ch 2, and sl st to the top of the beginning ch 3 to join.

Round 4: Continue the pattern, increasing the ch-1 spaces between the 3-dc groups by 1 in each round. For example, in Round 4, you would have ch 2, 3 dc in the next ch-2 space, ch 1, 3 dc in the next ch-1 space, ch 1, 3 dc in the next ch-1 space repeat from * to * until you reach the beginning corner. After each corner, continue to add ch-1 spaces to separate the 3-dc groups in each side of the square.

Secure yarn, cut and weave in ends

Joining the squares

Lay two squares right side up next to each other, join using the tapestry needle, and both middle loops from each square on one side.
Lay the next square to form a rectangle and join, continue to join all 5 squares.

Join the rectangle on both sides to form a circle.

Switch sides of the headband- right side out!

Finishing

Introduce a second yarn color (optional)

Round 1+ 2: Ch 1, sc 1 in 1st st from hook, sc 1 in next and around to end of round, Slst to 1st st.

Secure, cut your yarn, and weave in the ends.
