About this pattern
The Zermatt headband is a very beginner-friendly knit with a classic look. It’s the perfect ally for meaningful last-minute gifts or for when you need to stock up for your next market fair, as it works up pretty quickly and is very intuitive.

The pattern includes instructions for four different sizes (6-12 months, Toddler and Adult) in three different weights of yarn (Light bulky, Bulky and Super bulky), but you will find a note that explain how to easily adapt it to any other desired weight of yarn or size.

The Zermatt headband is worked flat and seamed at the end. I included both pictures and a video tutorial to explain how to sew the ends together.

Other than that, you will only need to know the basics techniques (CO, BO, knit, purl and slip stitches).

The pattern includes both US and metric terms.

I’m very excited to share this headband with you and I would love to see your work! Please use the hashtag #zermattheadband when sharing the pattern on social media and tag me @wolleyhandmade

I’m always available if you have any question!
Stay cozy,
