Warm Tweedy Earwarmer Headband |
My Warm Tweedy Neckwarmer, Hat and Mittens are very popular ~ and I thought a matching Earwarmer would be cute too.
It is so quick and simple to knit........ and so cosy!
Warm Tweedy Earwarmer Headband
Use 2 strands of DK yarn
(8ply) knitted together ~ or any combination of yarns to make a total of 16ply. This gives a nice
‘tweedy’ look
(Or use one strand of UK
chunky weight yarn)
6½ mm needles
Tension:
14sts = 4” (10cm) over stocking stitch
Size:
Width – 5” (13cm)
Length – 16 - 18” (depending on the size required)
Instructions:
Cast on 17sts
1st Row: K1,
*k3, p1, repeat from * to last 4sts, k4
2nd Row: K2,
*p1, k3 repeat from * last 3sts, p1, k2
Repeat these two
pattern rows until around 18”, ending after completing a 1st row
Cast off
Join the cast on and cast off edges with a
short seam. Darn away ends
Wrap a length of yarn around the join to gather the Earwarmer if desired.
