Free and Easy Tunisian Crochet Patterns for Beginners

Tunisian Crochet Headband Pattern by Nicki’s Homemade Crafts

Headbands and ear warmers like this one are a great way to practice stitches. They work up quickly, don’t require huge amounts of yarn (often they only take 1 skein) and make great gift ideas!

And Tunisian Crochet simple stitch is a nice warm stitch too, so it really lends itself to this type of project.
