Silver Pines Headband

**PATTERN NOTES** A quick and portable knit. Silver Pines is a sweet little headband featuring a simple, easy-to-memorize stitch pattern. Worked up in sport-weight yarn, this headband features a double-thick fabric that adds an extra layer of warmth. Choose wool or alpaca for the colder months or natural cotton or linen for the warmer months. The pattern is charted and includes separate written instructions. All repeats appear in bold text. The pattern is written for magic loop, but feel free to use a set of double-pointed needles. Pattern includes a video link for assembling the headband. **CONSTRUCTION** The headband is worked in the round, creating a double-thick, two-sided fabric. Cables are featured on the outside with stockinette stitch on the inside. Both ends are sewn together to create a decorative knot on the right side of the headband. **YARN** Approximately 230 yards/210 m of Sport or Light-DK yarn Shown in [Concept by Katia Cotton-Cashmere](https://www.ravelry.com/yarns/library/concept-by-katia-cotton-cashmere) in Stone Grey (56) **NEEDLES** US 4/3.5 mm 32”/81 cm circular needles for working magic loop, or a set of double-pointed needles **NOTIONS** Tapestry Needle Blocking Materials Measuring tape & scissors **GAUGE** Worked in pattern, in the round & blocked Cable pattern: 43 stitches & 33 rows = 5.5”/14 cm wide x 5”/13 cm long Stockinette Stitch: 29 stitches & 33 rows = 5.5”/14 cm wide x 5”/13 cm long **FINISHED MEASUREMENTS** 5.5”/14 cm wide Circumference is adjustable **TECHNIQUES USED** * Working Magic Loop on a 32"/81 cm circular needle * Joining in the round * Cables * Working from a chart or written instructions * Seaming using Whip Stitch (video included in pattern) **PATTERN DIFFICULTY** Intermediate [1]: https://www.ravelry.com/stores/whiletheyplay-designs [2]: https://ko-fi.com/kalurah
