Braided Headband

Lion Brand® Microspun

GAUGE:

One Headband Strip = 1 in. [2.5 cm] wide. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
Lion Brand Online Stitch Counter

HEADBAND STRIP (make 3)
With 1 strand A and 1 strand B held together, cast on 5 stitches.
Row 1: Slip 1 stitch as if to knit, (purl 1, knit 1) twice.
Row 2: Slip 1 stitch as if to purl, (knit 1, purl 1) twice.
Repeat Rows 1 and 2 until Strip measures 12 in. [30.5 cm] from beginning. Bind off.

Finishing
Place 3 Strips on top of one another and sew together at one end. Braid Strips, and then sew together at other end. Weave in ends. Cut ribbon length in half, sew one half to each end of Headband.

Braided Headband Reviewed by carole cheskay on 2009-03-12 *****
I made this headband and I changed the length to 19" and instead of using ribbon on each end I sewed the two ends together. It was very easy and comfortable to wear.
