Textured Twist Headband

Hey guys!
Headbands are a great project to learn new stitches and techniques on, and I loved making this pattern with its interesting stitch texture! The twist is like the cherry on top and I just all in all love the finished product, if you have any questions feel free to ask- I'd be happy to help!
Have a beautiful day,

• bulky ( thick ) yarn
• crochet hook 5.25mm
• scissors
• tapestry needle

ABBREVIATIONS:
ch = chain
R = round
Hdc = half double crochet
Sl st = slip stitch
* *= repeat all the way down row

Ch 76,
( or less/more so it is the circumference of your head, as long as the chain is an even number )
R1: hdc in 3rd ch from hook, sl stitch, * hdc, sl st * (76)
R2: * sl st, hdc* (76)
Repeat alternating rows of *hdc, sl st* and * sl st, hdc* for a total of 13 rows.

Fold the edges of the head band, putting them in a sort of interlocked position with four "layers", (see pictures for visual reference) sew the top layer and second layer together, then sew the third layer to the second, and the fourth layer to the third. Turn the headband right side out, and you should have a twisted created by sewing the layers on top of each other. Sew in your ends, and you're done!

Again, if you have any questions, I'm happy to help you out.
Have a blessed day,
