  Step 1

  The headband consists of three flowers in two different sizes. Make 1 large flower and 2 small ones.

  Large Flower (make 1): rnd 1 - Ch2, 5 sc in first st, join with slip st to form round.
  rnd 2 - Ch 1, 2 sc in each st, join with slip st to form round.
  rnd 3 - Ch 1, *slip st in next st, (1 sc, 2 hdc, 1 dc, 2 hdc, and 1 sc) in next st.* Repeat from * to *. Join with slip st.
  Fasten off and weave in ends.

  Small Flower (make 2): rnd 1 - Ch2, 9 sc in first st, join with slip st to form round.
  rnd 2 - Ch 1, *slip st in next st, (1 sc, 2 hdc, 1 dc, 2 hdc, and 1 sc) in next st.* Repeat from * to *. Join with slip st.

  Step 2

  Sew pearl beads on however you want. I sewed 1 large pearl bead to the center of my large flower, 3 small pearl beads to the center of one of my smaller flowers, and 1 large and 1 small pearl bead to the center of the other small flower.

  Step 3

  Measure out 45-50 inches of the ribbon you're using (I used black organza ribbon). About 15 inches up one side, separate using pins or tape a 6 inch section.

  Step 4

  Sew the flowers on to the ribbon. Place them within the 6 inch area and leave about half an inch between the edges of the petals so they are evenly spaced.

• Step 5

  Finally, tie and wear.

  You can add a clasp to the back if you wish (tying and untying wears out the ribbon).
