Cité headband

If you share my admiration for the stunning Metro in Paris, you're sure to appreciate the charm of the intertwining art nouveau arches and their captivating repetitive motifs. Stepping off the Metro can be a refreshing experience; however, it also brings with it a gust of wind! That's where the Cité headband comes in—perfect for keeping your ears warm against even the frostiest of breezes. This delightful accessory is inspired by the intricate bud motif of the Cité stop archway, allowing you to knit a beautiful and functional art nouveau piece!

This pattern offers a fun and stylish way to shield your ears from the cold while simultaneously keeping your hair in place. Featuring a combination of textured stitches, lace detailing, and elegant cabling, the Cité headband is an enjoyable project for knitters of all skill levels. To complete this accessory, you'll need just two buttons that fit perfectly into the buttonholes.

The Cité headband pattern is featured in From Paris, With Love: A Book of Hand-Knit Gifts, making it a perfect addition to your knitting library. Whether you're knitting for yourself or as a thoughtful gift for a friend, this headband not only showcases your knitting skills but also brings a touch of Parisian elegance into your wardrobe!
