I love headbands/earwarmers and mini mock cables so this was a no-brainer!

It is knit flat and seamed at the back so that you can make it the correct size for your head. Of course if you are a more advanced knitter you can use a provisional cast on and do the kitchener stitch to have an invisible join.

The cuffs are knit flat as well but you could use dpns - I just find them a bit fiddly with the mini cables. These little cuffs if made in 100% wool really do make your whole body warmer. Great for wearing in a cold basement!

Any aran weight yarn will work as the Mission Falls is now a thing of the past :-(.
