I've had some left over orange yarn that I really wanted to use because I'm seriously obsessed with that color right now. To solve my problem, I went on to Ravelry and found this adorable pattern for a braided cable headband! It was absolutely perfect and I definitely had enough left over yarn to make one. So I sat down with a pair of needs, a cable needle, and my yarn and started to knit away :)
I love how this pattern turned out! And I'm even more in love with the color I used. I'm probably going to donate it to the hospital my knitting club makes things for, but that doesn't mean I still can't be proud of it! If I make this again, though, I'm definitely not going to make it as big as the pattern calls for because it's just a tad bit too big. It fits fine, I just prefer to have headbands be a little tighter than this one ended up being. Hopefully it will fit someone in need better! The best thing about this, too, was that it was a super quick and easy project. There are definitely more braided cable headbands in my future!
Because I've been watching so many movies lately, I have had a ton of time to catch up on knitting projects. I finished this headband, a scarf, and a cowl that I absolutely can't wait to share with you guys. So make sure you keep your eyes out for some more fun Craft Corner posts coming up this week!
Wow, this is so cute! I need to practice knitting more because I can only knit straight scarves as of now.
