Shelly-Twist Headwrap

I personally prefer wearing ear warmers over hats which is why it was so shocking to me that I had hardly any patterns for them! I usually make quite a few of my Gio Head Wraps to take to shows every year but felt like I needed more variety this year, so I came up with a few more designs.

Besides the fact that they are great for coving up those gray roots, they also can be made in so many different styles to show off.

I Love this twist on the Shell stitch with Yarn Bee Soft & Sleek yarns. It gives off this chunky look without the chunky yarn & it's super soft!

Here's what you'll need to get started.......

Materials:

Yarn Bee Soft & Sleek (approx. 85 yds total)

J (5.75 mm) Hook

Scissors

Needle

Abbreviations(US Terms):

SK= Skip

ST=Stitch

sts = Stitches

SP= Space

CH= Chain

SC= Single Crochet

DC= Double Crochet

Shell= 4 DC in one stitch

NOTES: Finished item should fit the average adult female. Adapt the circumference by increasing or decreasing the repeat rows until you have 1” longer than the circumference needed.

To begin CH 16

ROW 1: SC in 2nd CH from the hook and in each ST across(15)

ROW 2: CH 3 (counts as your first ST) & turn, DC in the next ST, SK 1, place 4 DC in the next ST, repeat(SK 3, place 4 DC in the next ST) twice, SK 1, DC in the last 2 sts

ROWS 3-36: CH 3 (counts as your first ST) & turn, DC in the next ST, repeat[place 4 DC in the center of each shell(between ST 2 and 3)] 3 times, DC in the last 2 sts

ROW 37: CH 1 (does not count as a ST) & turn, SC in each ST across(16). Cut, tie off leaving a long tail to sew up the ends, & tie off

Because this stitch is reversible just pick which side you want to be your right side and lay it right side up. I highly recommend weaving in your starting tail before seaming. Your piece should measure 21.5” long at this point, but will stretch longer.

Fold the right & left ends in to meet in the middle. Fold both ends in half.

Bring the 2 sides together layering the right top half on top of the left top half, right bottom, left bottom. The red line follows the right hand side end, the yellow line follows the left hand side end.

Now use your long tail to seam all 4 layers together across.

Weave in your tail, turn your band right side out, adjust the twist, and you're done.
