Dec sc in first 2 st, sc in chain 2 space, dec sc in last 2 st (=3sc), ch 1 and turn.
Sc in each st across, fasten off and weave in tail.
On the end without the button hole, sew on a button in the 2nd row of stiches (this is about 21" from the button hole). The button I used was 3/4 inch. Use the tail from the start row to sew on the button, then just weave in.

When the headband is finished, it should be about 22" long end to end unstretched. Need it smaller or bigger? Just add or subtract rows in the hdc section of the pattern.

For flower placement, I fold the headband in half, then place the flower just near the crease and sew.
