Headwear
is fun. Headwear is creative.
Headwear gets the ‘brain juices’ flowin .. you take a simple bit of yarn, using your hook .. tie it up in a few knots, and voila!
Before you know it .. you’ve got something to cover the head!
How lovely is that??!

Some
of these pattern links given below are my original patterns, and some of them
are just some super freebies I’ve found floating on the net… which I’ve tried
out. For those that I’ve tried (and / or
tweaked), I’ve written down my comments and notes.
Just for your information, these are yarn weight specifications as per CYCA.
1. Crochet Baby Turban
For this lovely project, I used the free pattern from http://thismamamakesstuff.com/crochet-baby-turban-pattern-tutorial/
Materials used : Vardhaman Baby Soft (4-ply yarn)~ 25 gms ; 4 mm crochet hook
Size :
0-3 months
Skill level : Easy , beginner
Changes made : Did one last row of reverse sc / crab stitch at
the end for a rounded finish.
How to hold your yarn in crochet : https://youtu.be/FwOlCbGdbqY
Crab stitch / Reverse single crochet : (Reverse
sc)
: This is your regular single crochet st, but done in reverse. So instead of moving ‘clockwise’ as we
regularly work, you move anti-clockwise
or counter clockwise, to achieve a slightly ‘bumpy’ single crochet, which
is your reverse sc.
2. Vaada slouch
This
is my original design.

One
evening, while watching the lovely rom-com “The Vow”, in the last frame, Rachel
McAdams wore this really cute slouchy.. and she looked so beautiful.. and oh so
lost.. it was a tug on the heart strings (no wonder Channing Tatum looked
all lost too.. or just a great actor?? ).. so
anyway, this is my take on that slouchy.. my “Vaada slouch” (Vaada meaning “Vow”
in Hindi – and I vow that this is an easy pattern for you to follow as well

This
beanie has been designed for a friend’s son, who loves going on treks and
arranges adventure tours. This young

Society creates and made a different life for himself. He’s off yet again, on another adventure, and
could use this warm hat. This hat is
part of set that includes a matching scarf.
