Description:

There are tons of gorgeous patterns for hair accessories on the interweb, so I thought it might be nice if we had a swap to celebrate that fact :)

For this swap you're required to crochet a nice hair accessory for each of your (2) partners - please check their profile for any preferences on colours/styles etc. Also, if you're planning to make something small such as hair grips/clips, please send at least two of these, to make the swap worthwhile for you and your partner. Also, be sure to send something that you've taken time over and would like to receive yourself.

You could make:

  • Headband/wrap

  • Bandana

  • Scrunchie

  • Barrette

  • Pin/Grip/Clip

  • Embellished alice band

... and the list goes on. Some examples can be found here and here, as well as on ravelry.com, lionbrand.com and countless other sites. Searching for 'crochet hair accessories' is sure to bring up lots more patterns too :)

Also, please post below if you would prefer not to receive a certain type of accessory (ie. 'no need for scrunchies due to short hair'). I'll be checking profiles before assigning partners ... newbies are welcome with well filled-out profiles. I'll angel the swap if need be, but would obviously prefer not to if at all possible! ;)

I love to make hair accessories. I have very long hair and put it up in the summer months, so I've made hair snoods and buns holders. Fun and can coordinate with clothes!!!!

awesome who ever gets me I have short hair and thin baby fine hair. It is very hard for me to fine the right clips for my hair. But I am into bandana/headband/wrap. But if you don't have the time or not in the mood to make a big project, I understand sometimes we feel we aren't in the mood to crochet certain things. I will take what ever you are in the mood to make, because I have two teen girls I can pass them on to.

I have a fairly short bob so don't tend to use any kind of scrunchie ... but I'm sure that I'll be very pleased with whatever I receive! :D
