The Cable Headband

The Cable Headband is a continuation of The Cable Scarf. A simple yet striking lace/cable pattern runs along the entire length of the headband. The headband is knitted double, resulting in an extra soft and warm finish. The size can easily be adjusted to fit your head circumference: knit the headband until it comfortably fits around your head when slightly stretched.
