Instructions
Follow these simple steps to make your Tunisian crochet hair band:
Make a foundation chain that is long enough to fit around your head comfortably. Use a multiple of 4 stitches, plus 2 extra stitches.
Insert your Tunisian crochet hook into the second chain from the hook, and pull up a loop. Repeat this process across the row, until you have one loop left on your hook.
For the next row, work a Tunisian crochet stitch called the Tunisian Knit Stitch (TKS) across the row. This stitch will create a nice, dense fabric that is perfect for a hair band. To work the TKS, insert your hook under the front vertical bar of the stitch, from right to left. Yarn over, and pull up a loop.
Repeat step 3 across the row, until you have one loop left on your hook.
For the next row, work the TKS across the row again.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 until your hair band is the desired width.
Bind off your stitches, and weave in the ends with a yarn needle.
