1950s Bonnet Style Headband Tutorial | Just Vintage Crochet 

I love that idea!

Try alpaca fleece! ;) Synthetics smell weird and will make you too warm and make your hair staticky.

Can ya make mine with two or three layers? Ever since I was in Duluth Minnesota waiting for the primary school bus one mornin', in -74°windchill weather that was whipping up to be a blizzard later - which actually buried our three-story School to halfway of the third floor windows* - I really don't like the cold or blustery winds. I didn't get home until 9:30 that night. All the people in charge of such jobs, had to get the snow plows out on extra duty to clear roads to all schools and to the bus barn, as well as dig out any other schools that got buried. * Now that I'm grown, I'm thinking, maybe that was only on the windward side where the snow made a huge drift against the building, but they did say they had to dig us out. Once again, maybe that's the case, and that, coincidentally, is where a main entrance to the school is/was. I do remember leaving through the double doors where I always entered the school. Now I'm wondering about the fire code safety rules about egress/ Escape Routes. Whenever we had fire drills we always went out those doors. Surely those were not the only doors? What do I know I was in 3rd grade, and was governed every minute.

@@kayceegreer4418 , In case of fire, jump out the window and into the snow! I know in harsher climates, everybody has to "suck it up", but it does sound like somebody goofed. You guys should have been off!

Thank you! 😊

You are SO sweet,The headbands look adorable, I'm kind of a beginner,But I might give this a try, You and I can look good taking the dog for a walk or maybe getting the mail 🙂

I was just thinking that I have some lovely green yarn that I could use. Now you cemented my choice of yarn with your comment. Thank you so much.

Sounds great!

Yes. It would be good with cotton yarn, I think.

@@bigred9428I think so too, I will make one!

I don't have the original book, I got this pattern from a 1982 " Old Time Crochet Patterns&Designs" magazine , I'm verry sorry I could not help, the magazine does not reference the name of the original publication either, And thank you so much for the kind words

I remember seeing my mom and my aunts in photos with this hat/headband on. This is awesome, I will be making one of these for my mom, who is 82 years old, and then she will not have an excuse for not wearing an ear cover in the winter.

Thank you! 😊
