Double Flower Headband Pattern

I have been waiting ALL WEEK to show you this...


Isn't it Beautiful!?
I am so proud of this little headband that I could just do a flip...well, probably not a flip. I never was any good at gymnastics.

The flower and bands are my own patterns
and since I LOVE all of you so much
I'm going to share it with all of you
(Sharing is caring, right?)

The "Lucy" Headband Pattern


Difficulty: Easy - Medium
Time: 30 minutes
Fun-ness: How could it not be?
Materials:
Yarn (any kind)
Crochet Hook - Size H
Yarn Needle
Ribbon
Scissors
Glue Gun

**The following instructions are based on the assumption that you already know the basics of crocheting. If you are trying it for the first time, here is a good video to help you with the basics as you follow the tutorial. 

ch: Chain
sk st: Skip Stitch
sl st: Slip Stitch
sc: Single Crochet
hdc: Half Double Crochet
dc: Double Crochet



Headband: Check out my TUTORIAL from November. It takes you step by step on how to create your headband :)


Big Flower: 
Round 1: ch 4 and sl st to join and form a small circle
Round 2: ch 2 and sc 9 times into center of circle.
Round 3: ch 2, skip the first sc, and sl st into 2nd worked sc. ch 2, sk st and sl st into next. Continue until you have 5 ch spaces (sl st to join)
Round 4: Into 1st worked ch space, sl st, sc, hdc, dc, hdc, s, sl st. Complete this round of stitches into each of the remaining ch spaces. Tie off to finish.


Small Flower:

Round 1: ch 4 and sl st to join and form a small circle
Round 2: ch 2 and sc 9 times into center of circle.
Round 3: ch 2, skip the first sc, and sl st into 2nd worked sc. ch 2, sk st and sl st into next. Continue until you have 5 ch spaces (sl st to join)
Round 4: Into 1st worked ch space, sl st, hdc, dc, hdc, sl st. Complete this round of stitches into each of the remaining ch spaces. Tie off to finish.

Putting it all Together
Using hot glue, attach the flowers where you like them on the headband. 
Done and Done!

Alright, so you want the headband, but you don't have time to make one yourself
That's okay, because I actually have a few that I am 
This is my FIRST experience selling anything on Etsy, so I am 
excited and nervous and hopeful. 
My husband told me that if I can sell 10 headbands, I can get a Blog Makeover (which would be amazing!)
So help a girl out!

If there is a change in the search engine algorithms, it is also up to the service provider to keep a watch on such activities.
Once the number of back links will increase,
web traffic flow will enhance. It would be optimum thought to
select the local SEO service after checking the rank of their website.
Out of those 6 keywords, further reduce the number
of keywords. SEO must be implemented by following a step
by step process. If the conversion is higher with a certain keyword
or a particular set of keywords, then the SEO vendor can focus on the same keyword to get
it ranked high in all the search engines. While these 5 truths may seem
self-evident, it is the astonishing fact that they are contradicted, and
even outright disputed, in the greater SEO debate. Relevant keywords ought to be used in the alt tags.

Online research is required to determine the packages and SEO Company.

People these days use the Internet for a varied purpose.
The final way that you can use your Deviant - ART profile for SEO purposes is by being an active member of the community ' watch the work of others (especially if they are related to your business), encourage others to watch your work, comment on work, list other users as your friends. If your website deals with certain products or services, then conduct a proper research on these and then form your SEO content. Advertise by Selling Branded Products. Immediately the word free caught my eye. And, as more and more companies move larger portions of their advertising budgets to internet marketing, there is an even greater demand for their skills. SEO companies may only offer this type of service. Online Advertising and SEO Marketing. When a person enters a keyword into the search box of a particular search engine such as Google, there will be scores of results showing out which are a result of a search engine algorithm devised by that particular search engine. A good web solutions company will always provide you realistic time frame for the results to show up. Addition and updation of fresh content always leads to arrival of increased traffic to your websites.
