Headband
Using violet, make single crochet stitches all along the headband to cover it. Crochet the stitches tightly
and close to each other, so you won’t be able to see the headband under it. Weave in ends. If you like,
you can cover the tips with a bit of grosgrain ribbon.
Assembly
- Sew the ends of the white tube together to form a ring. With a bit of black yarn, embroider tiny dots to
the ermine band.
- Sew the velvet cap to the ermine band, using the remaining yellow yarn tail.
- Cross the golden arches over the velvet cap and sew the ends inside the golden band, so they Will
remain hidden by them.
- Secure the cross where the golden arches meet to the velvet cap with a few stitches.
