Garter stitch headband




The whole thing is knitted in garter stitch, which you get by knitting every round. In order to get a clean edge I slip the first stitch of every round from the back and holding the yarn in front, like shown in the picture.
The increases are then done in the second stitch and are all kfb.
For the gray/brownish one I used Mix n’Match Fantasy, 4 mm needles and 3.5 mm crochet hook for the flower.


Headband:
CO 6 sts
Rnd 1: k all
Rnd 2: sl first st, kfb, k5
Rnd 3: sl first st, k to end
Rnd 4: sl first st, k to end
Rnd 5: sl first st, kbf, k to end
Continue increasing like established until rnd 31 (no increase there)
Rnd 32-35: sl first st, kbf, k to end
You should now have 20 sts, work aprox. 90 rnds more slipping the first st of every rnd or until peace measures 30 cm aprox. To decrease follow the increasing pattern:
Rnd 126-129: sl first st, k2tog, k to end
Rnd 130: sl first st, k to end
Rnd 131: sl first st, k to end
Rnd 132: sl first st, k2tog, k to end
Rnd 133: sl first st, k to end
Rnd 134: sl first st, k to end
Rnd 135: sl first st, k2tog, k to end
Continue on decreasing until you have 7 sts:
Buttonhole rnd1: sl first st, k1, BO 3, k2
Buttonhole rnd 2: sl first st, k1, CO2, k2
Final rnd: sl first st, k to end.
BO and weave in ends.



Flower:
Magic loop
Rnd 1: (sc in ring, 3 dc) 5 times, sl in first sc to close.
Rnd 2: (ch 3, sl into sc) 5 times, sl in first sc to close
Rnd 3: (sc into ch 3 space, hdc, 3dc, hdc, sc) 5 times, sl in first sc to close
Rnd 4: (ch 4, sl into sc) 5 times, sl in first sc to close
Rnd 5: (sc into ch 4 space, hdc, 5tr, hdc, sc) 5 times, sl in first sc to close
