About the Project:

Calling all new knitters! When the weekend forecast calls for “sunny with a chance of brisk autumn walks,” it’s time to whip out some knitting needles and start making a cozy Lottie headband!

Project Skill Level: Learn-to-Knit

The Lottie headband was designed with simplicity in mind. Simple projects with lots of repetition allow you to get into a nice rhythm so your brain, hands, needles, and yarn can learn how to work together at the same time. At the heart of it, repetition builds stitch mastery and knitting confidence!
