For instructions on how to do a Puff Stitch and a Back Post Double Crochet (bpdc), see Stitches & Techniques .
Note: If you use a larger size button (that fits between the headband stitches) than what the pattern calls for, you will need to adjust the center ring size of the interchangeable motifs so they fit over the button. You can do this by simply chaining more stitches for the beginning loop.
