Easy Headband

My daughter has really fine hair that doesn't stay up in her ponytails and can get kind of wild. I try to keep it out of her face by using barrettes, but she doesn't like them and is always pulling them out. I decided to try out a headband and see if she would like that better than barrettes.

I found an easy headband tutorial at KT and the Squid and tried it out last night.

I liked that it used a rubber band in the back.

This was the thicker version of the pattern. I think I would try the thinner one next time. I would also pay more attention to making sure that the braid doesn't twist when I'm putting it together. It has purple, though, which is my daughter's current favorite color, so she's in love with it.
