Betty Headband


Here is a headband I made for my MIL Betty. She requested something absorbent that she can wear under her riding helmet (she rides horses). This is done in a seed stitch (cast on 16), size 5 needles, with a cotton/elastic blend yarn, 20 inches in length. The yarn is Fixation by Cascade Yarns, color # 5104, 98.3% cotton, 1.7% elastic. Hmmm... I'm thinking it looks like terry cloth and it feels like it too!

Seed Stitch Head Scarf

Here is a skinny head scarf I knit in the seed stitch. I cast on 10 stitches; row 1: k1, p1; row 2: p1, k1. Repeat rows 1 and 2 until desired length. I personally made mine 45 inches so I can tie it underneath. I used Naturally Caron Spa in Berry Frappe and size 5 needles.

Head Scarf

I love head scarves and I recently bought a bamboo blend yarn on my latest trip to Austin and really wanted to find a use for it. I used Naturally Caron Spa yarn in Berry Frappe. Here's the link for the pattern: http://www.crochetme.com/June_July_2005/patt_headscarf.htm
