►►► GRAB THE FREE HEADBAND PATTERN HERE: https://sheepandstitch.com/pattern/ho...

This video covers two different headband styles with a simple and stylish twist.

The first headband style is knit in Double Stockinette Stitch, which yields a warm doublelayer of stockinette stitch.

The resulting fabric is extra warm, and unlike regular stockinette stitch, it doesn’t curl!

The second headband style is a classic Fisherman’s Rib. This stitch is super stretchy and looks wonderful knit into a headband.

In this video, you'll learn how to knit these two headbands from beginning to end, including tips like how to insert a lifeline (very essential!) and how to size the headband for a perfect fit. This pattern is best for the adventurous beginner.

These headbands are great lastminute gifts, so knit them up for the holidays! Grab the free pattern at the link above!
