I find myself using my Day Spa Hair Wrap weather my hair is wet or dry. It sure does a great job soaking up the water once I’ve washed my hair so I can quickly move on to style it. But sometimes I like jumping into the bathtub without getting my hair wet and this Day Spa Hair Wrap works great keeping my hair out of the water.
Placed in a lovely gift bag with pretty tissue, it would make a sweet gift for a mom, sister, BFF or aunt, too! Add some bath soaps and a gift card to her favorite salon and it’s a day spa makeover just waiting to happen!

I designed the pattern to be knit all in one piece and then whip stitched at the back of the head.
The pattern can easily be adjusted for longer or shorter hair lengths.
The materials are approximately 200 yards of worsted weight 100% cotton yarn. Knit on size 8US straight knitting needles. And just a few more things get you going on this fairly easy and quick project.
The most complicated stitches you need to know are:
K2tog
S2kpo
YO
and the explanations for these stitches are given in the pattern.
