Feel like a mermaid in this fun, pretty headband pattern! The two colors carried at once makes an insulated fabric that is sure to keep your ears toasty! Variegated yarns really shine in this pattern when paired with a solid yarn. No worries if you’ve never done colorwork before, I provide lots of tips and tricks!

Sizing
I provide instructions for 4 finished circumferences: 18.5”/47cm (19.5”/49.5cm) (20”/51cm) (21”/53.5cm). I recommend knitting the size that gives 1-2 inches (3-5 cm) of negative ease relative to your head circumference. Finished height is 3.5” (9 cm).

Yarn
Fingering-weight (or sock) yarn:
◦40-60 m (45 – 65 yards) in Main Color shown in variegated yarn
◦40-60 m (45 – 65 yards) in Contrasting Color shown in black
