I am (along with my mother) working on a gift idea, in our case for teenage girls. The idea is to make a decorative crochet lining/border (don't know the appropriate word) and fasten it on a bridal (we're all into horses). That is fasten it on the band that goes across the horse's forehead. I plan to make from some shiny or glittery thread or put beads on it. If you don't understand what I mean, please say so, and I'll explain better.

So my question to you guys is if you could tip me about some nice looking border/edges that could look good in this idea :o)

And yea, one thing, I apologize for any misspelling or strange wording that may appear in my writing. English is not my native language :o)

Hey, that sounds like a great idea! Reminds me of the tribal horse decorations from the Afghan Bedouins. But with more bling! ;)

whoa, check this one! I'd say, use some braiding, or some tassel ideas.

There are a couple of patterns on Ravelry (one paying and a couple free).  They're not quite what you seem to be looking for, but it would be a start.  You'd need to search under "horse".  They're either called horse hat or cap. 2 of the patterns cover the ears.

Thank you Craftwich and Minimomes! I see in those pics where I can set my goal :o)

I hadn't thought about searching under horse on ravelry, I've been looking at all kinds of other things though.

I like this book:
