For this headband I used Paintbox Yarns Simply chunky, it’s my all-time favorite yarn, it is so soft and easy to work with. And glides on my hook like an ice princess. And the best is not even the quality of the yarn but the price. It’s good quality yarn for your bucks and 136m on one ball. I tend to place my orders on lovecrafts when they have great deals on this yarn. Which is like every other day, so if you don’t want to get really hooked on a new yarn, DON’T BUY IT! But if you feel like getting hooked you can find it here – PAINTBOX YARNS
This headband is made with bulky weight yarn and 5,5 mm or 6,0mm crochet hook, or yarn and hook required to make gauge. I tend to crochet a little looser, so I use a 5,5mm hook to make sure my stitches are nice and even.
