This crochet knotted headband pattern is perfect for beginner crocheters. We will simply be crocheting a rectangle, knotting it, and sewing the ends together. This pattern is so quick and easy, that it makes a perfect last-minute holiday gift.
Below you will find the complete pattern and instructional photos for this crochet knotted headband pattern. You will also find all the materials, stitches, gauge, and sizing information.
The Beginner-Friendly Crochet Knotted Headband
While working on my “How to Crochet” series, I wanted to provide several beginner-friendly patterns to help new crocheters practice. Plus, I wanted to show beginners how many items they could make with just crocheted squares and rectangles.
This knotted headband is a perfect example of a pattern that looks harder than it is. Instead of working a complex pattern to create a cable or knot at the top of the headband, we will just work a long rectangle and then knot it and sew it into a headband. Easy peasy!

Beginner Crochet Knotted Headband Pattern
Notes:
-Written in US terms.
– I do not count my CH2, turning chain as a stitch.
CH 53 for Baby Size
CH 65 for Child Size
CH 71 for Adult Size
Row 1: HDC into the 3rd CH from hook, HDC into each of the remaining CHs. (Stitch count should be 2 less than your starting chain)
Row 2 – 6: CH2, turn, HDC in each ST across.
At the end of row 6 fasten off. Take your long rectangle and tie an overhand knot as the picture shows below. Pull the knot tight. Now place your two short ends together and use a whip stitch to sew them together.
Weave in you ends and your knotted headband is done.

This is amazing. I made it and it turned out beautifully! Your daughter is so adorable btw.
Thank you. I am glad you enjoyed the pattern.
Hi Lindsey,
I was just looking in your printable booklet of beginner patterns, and thought you should know that the finishing instructions for this pattern are not correct in the booklet. They say “Place two squares together and whip stitch around the edges with a different color. Make 4-5 of them and give them as a gift,” which doesn’t fit the pattern. There are no instructions on making the knot or sewing the ends together, like there are on the web site version. Just a heads up – otherwise an easy, fun, and quick pattern! Thanks for all you do!
Thank you so much. I will look into correcting that later today.
