Want a fun, quick to make, knit accessory for the summer? This adorable boho chic belt, headband, key fob or purse charm combo pattern, knitted in 1-2 colors of aran weight linen, could be just that! I provide a few sizes for the belt and headband, and also include a formula if you cannot find the size you like listed (this is very easily customizable so don’t fear using the formula)! I’ve also included a few different lengths of i-cord so that you can decide which length is right for you.

These accessories are knit flat from the top down. After the item is completed, they are bound off. An i-cord tie is then worked on either side of the belt and headband. For the key fob/purse charm you can fold it together to make it reversible and then whip stitch it around.
