Sunrise Headband
This stylish cable headband is the perfect introductory project for novice knitters and a quick knit for those with intermediate skills. Featuring just one “proper” cable design flanked by a faster-to-knit cheat's cable using eyelet-rib, it’s a great way to explore the world of cables without feeling overwhelmed.
This versatile headband can be customized to fit any head size, making it an ideal gift for friends and family. Instructions for adjusting size are provided, allowing you to modify how your cables will stretch and appear when worn. This means you can create a snug fit or a looser, more relaxed look according to your preference.
If you're looking for a speedy option, consider making the headband flat and seaming it at the back. The seam will be discreetly hidden, ensuring a clean finish. For more advanced knitters seeking a challenge, a seamless version can be crafted using a grafted join for a polished look.
You can substitute the recommended yarn with any high-quality 4ply/fingering yarn, but for best results, choose a solid or semi-solid shade that showcases your stitches beautifully. This will enhance the lovely textures you've created, ensuring your hard work stands out.
