A headband that is extra warm, which uses thrums of raw or spinning fleece to create an extra insulating thickness underneath. Little V’s of fleece create and interesting texture and a simple pattern on the surface. Knit in rib this headband is extra stretchy and designed to cover your ears completely. Either knit flat and seamed or with a provisional cast on and grafted together to create an invisible, flat join. Perfect for those extra cold, windy days, or when it is snowing out. Using thrums makes this project interesting and fun to knit!

Difficultly rating: Medium, using thrums and ribbing at the same time. Provisional cast on and crochet grafting. Easy to remember the pattern repeat.
