The beaded diamond patterns and picot edging on this headband sparkle like drops of dew on flower petals, creating an understated elegance that complements both casual and formal wear. The Dewdrop Headband is a quick, satisfying knit that will result in a unique, wearable accessory.

The headband body is knit from end to end, then stitches are picked up along the sides for a picot border, and on the ends for stretchy garter points and I-cords. Beads are knitted into the fabric on both Right and Wrong Side rows, but will show on the Right Side. The yarn is worked with extra-small needles for a tighter gauge resulting in a firm, resilient fabric.
