Here is a pattern I found for a wide head band...http://crochet.about.com/library/weekly/aa040205.htm Hope you will like to try it and maybe wear it once it's finished. Good luck with your search of new patterns. This link is for a crochet item though, don't know if you prefer knitting...
Thanks fairynatb! I think I'll try that, but make it a bit thinner as I think that would look better on me. I was looking for crochet items, as I'm a new crocheter but a seasoned knitter!
I am interested in trying this one, too. I need a few easy projects that do not take alot of time. Simultaneously, I will be refreshing my skills in crocheting. Thanks!
