Old Skool Headbands

Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®

GAUGE:

15 sts + 18 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in Garter Stitch (knit every st on every row). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

Kfb (knit into front and back) Knit next st without removing it from left needle, then k through back of same st ¬— 1 st increased.

Materials are sufficient to make multiple Headbands.

Old Skool Headbands Reviewed by Amber Simister on 2009-11-17 *****
These are so cute. Works up fast and quick. Each one I make looks better than the last. My girls love to wear them so much, they want me to make more in different colors.
