Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky yarn in pink and gray
• Hook: 9mm crochet hook
• Scissors: For cutting yarn
• Tapestry needle: For weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Start with a Slip Knot: Begin by making a slip knot on your crochet hook. This will be the starting point for your chain.
2. Chain 12: Yarn over and pull through to create a chain of 12 stitches. This will form the base of your bow.
3. Row 1: In the second chain from the hook, single crochet (sc) and continue to single crochet in each chain across. You should have a total of 11 single crochets. Turn your work.
4. Row 2: Chain 1 to begin the next row. Single crochet in each of the 11 stitches across. Turn your work.
5. Row 3: Repeat the same process: chain 1 and single crochet in each stitch across. Turn your work.
6. Row 4: Again, chain 1 and single crochet in each stitch across. Turn your work.
7. Row 5: For the final row, chain 1 and single crochet in each stitch across. You will have completed 5 rows of single crochet. Turn your work.
8. Fasten Off: Cut the yarn, leaving a tail of about 6 inches. Pull the tail through the last loop on your hook to secure it. Use your tapestry needle to weave in any loose ends.
9. Form the Bow Shape: Take the rectangle you’ve just crocheted and fold it accordion-style. This means you will create pleats by folding the rectangle back and forth.
10. Wrap the Center: Cut a length of yarn (about 12 inches) and wrap it tightly around the center of the folded rectangle to form the bow's middle. Secure the yarn with a knot to hold the shape in place.
11. Repeat for Second Bow: Follow the same steps using the gray yarn to create a second bow. You can mix and match colors for a fun look!

And there you have it! Your very own chic crochet hair bows are ready to wear or gift. Enjoy showcasing your beautiful handmade accessories!
