The Ladder Rungs Headband is a quick knit headband with a unique stitch pattern that results in a ladder style pattern. The scarf is knit using a garter stitch edge and stockinette for the center portion with some loops creating the ladder “rungs”. Knit using the soft, squishy Knitpicks Biggo yarn, this is great cozy quick project!
