Modeled after the Colorado Flag, this warm headband allows you to sport the colors of your favorite state while keeping warm when it’s cold outside. I designed this pattern after seeing the many crocheted options and not seeing any knit options.

I used 4 colors of Loops and Threads Impeccable:
Color A: Royal #01135
Color B: White #01005
Color C: Bright Red #01705
Color D: Sunny Day #15625
These colors can be substituted by any colors in the same colorway.

The C is made separately by knitting a short i-cord and thenpicking up stitches along one edge to make it circular.

These headbands are quick and easy to make. I designed the pattern in one size with a circumference of 22”, but it can be made smaller or larger by adding or subtracting 4 stitches for every inch larger or smaller you need it.

I hope you enjoy making them as much as I did!
