Finish off the Constellation set with this ‘boho chic’ tie headband. Give that simple but ever so popular ‘London’ look of a button-down shirt/trouser set with neutral tones an injection of bold sophistication with your cold weather attire. The Constellation Headband is perfect for creating a slightly edgier look whilst warming the ears and avoiding full on hat hair!

Knit flat in one piece, the Constellation Headband is a beautifully cabled design that flows from the initial ribbed increase section for the ties, into the simple small ‘zig-zagular’ cable motif into an intricately detailed interconnected diamond pattern and then back again, ending after decreasing for the second tie. See Size Guide for intended fit instructions.

Recommended Patterns:
Pair the Constellation headband with the matching Constellation Scarf and gloves to complete the look.
