This is one of five original designs in Ann Hood’s new book “knitting Yarns: Writers on Knitting”.

A cabled head wrap created in the round is a wonderful last minute gift to make for someone special in your life. The pattern uses short rows to create a wider section over your hair or forehead.

Another great yarn suggestion is one skein of Merino Alpaca by ShiBui (50% baby alpaca/50% merino with 131 yards) Color: Ivory (1 skein will make 2 head wraps).

Casey Bingham, my daughter, is one of the most thoughtful and kindest people I have the pleasure of knowing. She continues to teach me how to help others just for the pleasure of being nice. The pay it forward approach to life is her gift.
