This headband features a pattern of cabled hearts, on a background of reverse stocking (stockinette) stitch, edged by a pretty eyelet border. At the centre of the band, the heart motif inverts to become an upside-down image of itself.

The band can be worked in any DK or 8-ply yarn and comes in four sizes, from baby to adult. The pattern is both written and fully charted.

It is a fairly quick knit and requires knowledge of cable knitting, m1 and yrn increases, k2tog, ssk, p2tog, ssp, k3tog and sssk decreases, all of which are described in the instructions.

There is also a link to a short appendix about how to calculate yarn amounts if using a different yarn from the one suggested.
