Happy Headband
by Liz Gipson
For Liz Gipson, welcoming four cashmere-bearing goats into her backyard also meant welcoming cashmere fiber onto her needles. This headband uses her first ounces of precious handspun cashmere in a warm and soft lace headband perfect for chilly mornings. Concerned that the weight of the spindle would break the delicate yarn, she began spinning the yarn on a supported spindle but soon found that the twist held the fibers together firmly. The twist in the headband allows it to snug to the base of your neck and create less bulk.
