lacy headbands

Knitting doesn't have to be useful only in cold weather.  In fact I hope it isn't, if I am to make any sales in the next few months!


This week I've become very interested in lighter weight styles of knitting than those used in cozy winter knits.  Here are some lacy headbands which will soon brighten up my Etsy shop.  Who would have thought wool could be so summery?


I learned this squarish style from
another of Judy's YouTube videos.
It's so easy!

Cast on an odd number of stitches.
row 1:  *k2tog, yarn over*,
repeat between * to last stitch, k.
row 2: knit across.
The classic Shetland lace pattern
Crown of Glory,
featuring a series of grand eyelets,
takes 12 rows to complete.
