What was your inspiration?

This was inspired by the Prada Fall Fashion Show 2010. Every model was wearing one!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Jump in! Easy to follow instructions!

This pattern looks very intricate and difficult. I assure you that any advanced beginner knitter will be able to easily follow this pattern! You will need to know how to knit and crochet as both are used in this pattern. You can omit the crochet portion if you wish! The results will still be fabulous! Also, you will need to be familiar with cables.

When completed, it measures 19' around x 2 3/4" W.

Straight needles make it easy to knit, the bulky yarn gives this headband great fullness! Any light colored yarn shows off the pattern beautifully! Black is classic and can never be wrong!

GREAT STOCKING STUFFER, TEACHER GIFT OR SECRET SANTA! DON'T FORGET YOUR BOSS, HAIRDRESSER, MAIL CARRIER, BABYSITTER AND NEIGHBOR!
