Special Stitch: The Herringbone Double Crochet Stitch
The Herringbone Double Crochet (HBDC) creates a fun textured pattern. The tilt of this stitch creates the distinctive Herringbone arrow-shape on the surface of the fabric, when made as a flat project.
Herringbone Double Crochet (hbdc):
Yarn over, insert your hook into the next stitch, yarn over and pull up the loop through the stitch (there will be 3 loops on your hook) then pull the first loop on your hook through the second loop on your hook, 2 loops left on your hook, yarn over and pull through the first loop on your hook, yarn over and pull through last two loops on your hook.
Instructions for the Cozy Headband:
NOTE: There are three sizes for this headband. The first number you see if for the smallest size. The numbers in the brackets are for the second and third sizes.
This headband is crocheted in the round so the herringbone stitches will all slant the same way, this is different to how it looks when crocheted as a flat piece.
Loosely chain 33 (35, 37). Join with a slip stitch to the first ch to make a loop/ring. Be careful not to twist the chain.
Round 1: Ch 2, SC into the 1st ch from the hook (not the ch you made the sl st into), and dc into each ch around, join to the top of the ch2 with a sl st. 32 (34, 36)
Round 2: Ch2, HBDC in the first stitch and into each stitch around, join to the top of the ch2 with a sl st. 32 (34, 36)
Round 3: Ch2, HBDC in the first stitch and into each stitch around, join to the top of the ch2 with a sl st. 32 (34, 36)
Round 4: Ch2, HBDC in the first stitch and into each stitch around, join to the top of the ch2 with a sl st. 32 (34, 36)
Round 5: Ch2, SC in the first stitch and into each stitch around, join to the top of the ch2 with a sl st. 32 (34, 36)
Fasten off and weave in the ends.
This is how the stitch looks close up in your finished headband.
