Knitting 102: My First Headband with Pam
The Hiedra headband is a great way to learn something new in a small package.
Hiedra, which means ivy in Spanish, is worked flat with a beautiful plant motif created with simple cables and braids made with an interesting technique of dropping and picking up stitches. Great techniques to add to your knitting “toolbox”!
The headband pattern offers two fit variations. A narrow and a wide fit, depending on how much of the head you want to cover.
Come join the fun and learn some new skills!
