A note from the designer…

A Decade of Patterns - The Canon Years

In 2018 I was preparing for my first Christmas craft show in the small town where I was living at the time. I had just finished creating a number of baby hats and wanting a larger audience decided to try my hand at headbands. Pinterest is always a plethora of inspiration and that’s where my idea for the Cable It Fashion Headband came from. Never having used a cable needle before (I literally had just mastered knitting needles!) I turned to Youtube for a quick lesson. One night of some slightly frustrating trial and error and my headband was complete.

An interesting fact… A lot of my patterns that I have created over the years were designed at a time when I, myself, was a beginner knitter. This one is no exception.
