Say hello to the Braided Cable Headband, inspired by Prem Knits’ pattern, the Braided Cable Beanie. It’s perfect for a gift, or make 10 and keep all for yourself!
  • Beautiful, wide braided headband with a dense material, making it perfect for protecting your ears from the wind. Ideal for winter.

Skills:

familiar with knit and purl stitches, and cable
knitting.

  • The trickiest part of this pattern is the grafting/seaming at the end. Again, do not worry, I include a step by step video tutorial.
