Crochet Tie Back

July 18, 2013 By: Lorene

Simple and Sweet
Tie Back/ Headband

This adorable tie back features an easy one piece construction. They work up super quick and I predict they will be big sellers. Because the materials used are very inexpensive and they work up so quickly you can sell them at a very reasonable price.  These simple and sweet tie back headbands are fun to wear too.  Whether for an adult or baby, they are adjustable to fit anyone.

Finished Size:
Approximately 30” long

Washing Instructions:
These probably won’t need to be washed very often but if you find yours getting dirty simply soak it in some cool water with just a little touch of liquid soap or gentle liquid detergent. Do not rinse under running water as it will cause yarn to pill. Refill sink or basin with clean cool water and rinse in basin until all soap is gone
Lay flat to dry

Cost of Materials:
Less than $0.25 each

Time Involved:
20 minutes give or take a few

Recommended Retail Price:
$12.00-15.00

Gauge:
no gauge for this project

Notes:
-This tie back is made with one single piece of yarn though you will need to secure one of the two ties on each side of the flowers and I recommend also tacking the flowers down in place so that they are always in the right position. Double check your placement for the ties and the flowers BEFORE you sew them down, you don’t want to have to throw out your work because you stitched something wrong.
-I made some with 3hdc petals and some with hdc petals. You can easily modify this pattern for any flower. Singled, doubled, tripled, layered, etc.

I use small projects like this to include as free gifts in all of my online sales. It is a great way to promote repeat business.
