This easy headband has a twist on the top for a slight turban look. Super cute AND easy!

Appeals to tweens, teens, and women alike. A great ear warmer, headband, or as an accessory piece. An easy piece to grab instead of a hat, and easily fits in your purse or bag.

Uses a small amount of yardage making it great for odd and end scraps and small skeins.
