Project Info
Pattern: Irish Braided Cable Knit Headband By Julie
Yarn:
- Caron Simply Soft 100% Acrylic in Snow Sparkle (<1 skein)
Some might notice that this project was created with the leftover yarn from the snitch wings on my Harry Potter Gryffindor Style Baby Blanket
Time to Completion: Approx. 10 hours
Project Notes: This was a fantastic way to spend a Sunday afternoon in late Autumn when I’d noticed that my love of wearing buns daily was clashing with a need for my ears to stay warm in the increasingly cold weather of southern Minnesota. This is a great quick knit for any new knitters hoping to practice cables or create some holiday presents for friends. In total, I knit 148 rows; test fitting the headband as I went along until I was able to wrap it around my head with a slight stretch to ensure it wasn’t too large. At 148 rows, the headband ended up being about 20 inches long, the circumference of my head is a little over 22 inches.
