Nordic Twist Headband
The Nordic Twist Headband is a textured crochet ear warmer featuring a bold four-strand braid and soft ribbed fabric. Designed for intermediate makers, this aran-weight pattern creates a structured yet cosy winter accessory using just one skein of yarn.
Worked flat in back loop single crochet, the band is split mid-construction to form the braid, then rejoined and seamed for a polished finish.
