Inspired by the many twists and turns in Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, this cabled headband is perfect for knitters of all levels. This reinforced headband will keep ears warm and cozy, no matter how cold the weather, and the varying directions of the cables add visual interest and excitement. This pattern is easy enough to modify; simply add multiples of 12 to the pattern to increase thickness for scarves or cowls.

One size fits most
