Circle Chains Headband

Discover how to create this charming and quick cable knit headband, perfect for adding a touch of style to your wardrobe. With its unique intertwined design, inspired by the Norwegian term "Sirkelkjeder," meaning circular chains, this headband showcases a beautiful cable knit pattern that is both eye-catching and elegant.

This easy-to-follow knitting pattern incorporates I-cord strings and garter stitch for added texture, allowing you to seamlessly increase your stitches as you work toward the perfect fit. The cable knit design is repeated, giving you the flexibility to customize the length of your headband to suit your personal style and comfort.

To make this lovely headband, you'll need fingering weight yarn from your stash. For the stunning pink version, I used Adelaide by Primrose Yarn Co., which is a high-quality single ply yarn made from 100% Superwash Merino, boasting 435 yards per skein. The main color (MC) for this version is Juicey Fruit (pink), requiring approximately 42 yards of yarn.

If you prefer a cooler color scheme, check out the blue version made with SoLo by Lolodidit. This also is a fingering weight yarn made from 100% superwash merino wool, with 430 yards per skein, and features a delightful single ply texture. The main color (MC) for this version is Clouds (a beautiful white with blue), using about 42 yards.

Whether you’re an experienced knitter or just starting, this cable knit headband pattern is both simple and rewarding. It’s ideal for gifts, special occasions, or a cozy accessory for yourself. Dive into your knitting journey with this delightful headband, and enjoy the satisfaction of creating your own piece of wearable art!
