When I originally got the idea to design a hair ribbon for each March sister, I knew I wanted to make sure one was available for free. I don't know what it is about Beth's ribbon, but it felt like the right choice.
I made 2 options for this ribbon - a pig-tail version and a headband version. Of course, you can take the pig-tail version and make it as long as you want, making a darling ribbon similar to Meg's. I liked the idea of a transitional ribbon for Beth, the eternal youth, that included a pig-tail version. It seemed like the perfect way to capture her as a little girl, as she will always be.
I like that this ribbon can also be made into many other things. This Christmas, I crocheted a very long version and used to to wrap Christmas gifts. You could also make it into a tiny belt or banner to hang Christmas cards on. I believe the practicality of it suits Beth. I think she would have been the one to, instead of hanging Christmas cards or Father's letters on a piece of twine hung above the hearth, create a delicate ribbon for such a task.
