Moss Stitch Headband

Some time ago I knitted the Arm Knit Scarf. I had about half a skein left (25g) so I decided to do a headband to match the scarf. It was quite quick to do; taking about two hours or so, and the wool was exactly the right length! I used size 10mm needles for the chunky wool.

Instructions:

Cast on 8 stitches.

Knit moss stitch pattern: 

• Uneven rows, starting Row 1: K1, P1 across
• Even rows, starting Row 2: P1, K1 across

Continue in moss stitch until band fits quite tightly around your head. 

Bind off then either stitch both ends together or stitch on two buttons on one end, then overlap with the other end and pass the buttons through the knitting.
