KNITTING PATTERN: Loppet Headband

Please Note: This listing is for a KNITTING PATTERN only, not a finished product. You will receive a digital, downloadable file of instructions to knit this headband. If you would like to purchase a finished headband, please check my shop listings for a finished product!

This headband pattern was created by popular request to go along with the Loppet Beanie and Cowl patterns. When your ears are cold but you’re just not ready for a hat, try a headband instead! Perfect for people who like to wear their hair up. The unique texture of this pattern is created by holding a fingering weight slub yarn together with super bulky yarn. You’ll find a lot of slub yarn options by searching #slubyarn on Instagram or “slub yarn” here on Etsy. If you can’t find slub yarn, holding a colorful fingering weight yarn or mohair will achieve a similar result. You can simply leave out the slub yarn for a simple ribbed headband.
