An easy, fast project for some of my left over fingering weight yarn.
I saw knitted hair bands some where; so I thought I’d try and whip up a few of my own using a pattern I fashioned. T
Bandee hair bands will look great with a matching sweater, etc.
The Bandee also makes a nice cowl for a doll. CO more stitches for a larger version.
Free Pattern in exchange for a random act of kindness. ☺ (Sharing a smile will do.)
Using long tail cast on, cast on 36 sts. Transfer to three 4mm double-pointed needles; 12 sts each needle and join in the round and knit 14-18 rows, depending on how thick you would like the band.
Bind off loosely using a stretchy bind off. Weave in ends. Roll right side ends towards each other to meet in the middle.
For personal use only.
