Corny Headband!

I decided to knit a more summery headband than the wool for brains one. I did a yarn exchange with a friend in the US, Michelle on Ravelry. One of the yarns I received is Bernat’s Cot’n Corn and as the title suggests, it’s made from Corn and Cotton!

Using the DROPS design as before, I modified the pattern by using a stitch from my Vogue Knitting Stitch Dictionary (just had to get that in!) called Fancy Eyelet Rib. I took a second picture so you can see the holes! And this time I did not take a picture of me modelling it, only because I’ve got my hair tied up today…not because I don’t really like having my picture taken, honest ;)

    What a cute headband! It looks perfect for summer. Is it knitted all the way around or does it have a fastening in the back?
    Take care of yourself. Hugs and kisses.

    Teresa, you knit to the end, then pick up the cast on stitches, then cast off, I think it’s called a three-needle cast off? I might not always know the terms, but I can do it!
