I used worsted weight yarn and a US size H hook (5mm), but it would probably work with other sizes as well. It barely takes any yarn, so it's a great way to use up the end of a ball. [Sorry about the change of yarn color throughout the pattern, I was working on two at the same time.]

BOW row 1: ch 16, turn row 2: sc 15,ch1, turn repeat row 2 nine times bind off strings [you will now have a rectangle of yarn]
Pinch the middle of the rectangle together (forming a bow shape) and wrap yarn around it 5-10. Tie off.
HEADBAND row 1: ch st at least 24 inches (or desired length of headband) row 2: sc in ea ch st
ATTACHING THE BOW TO THE HEADBAND (This part is the trickiest part, but even this is really not hard at all.) Using a blunt eyed needle sew the bow onto the headband (this is a good way to use the tail ends of yarn that were created when you cinched the bow.) [If you don't have a blunt eyed needle, you can accomplish the same feat with a crochet hook, just pull the yarn through with a hook.]
repeat step 4 twice more (where the red arrows are in the picture) bury and cut all loose ends
