The Judah Headband is a textured knitted ear warmer worked in the round using broken rib stitch. Alternating rounds create plenty of stitch definition while keeping the pattern straightforward, and the circular construction means there is no seam to sew when you finish.

The pattern includes four sizes: toddler, child, small adult, and large adult.

Materials:
40–80 yards worsted-weight yarn
