The colours of Holly holler ‘Merry Christmas’. Earthy and warm, indicating festivity and celebration. Is there anything better than to sit near the fire, ensconced in the warmth of family, sipping hot chocolate and celebrate winters. A time to breathe in fresh sharp air. rest, recover and rejuvenate. This headband is inspired by the same feeling of warmth and I hope you enjoy making it as much as I did. It will make a great gift for the girls in your life.

Terms: US terminology
Level of difficulty: Intermediate
Gauge: 4 inches= 12 rows x 12 sts in sc
Yarn: weight 5
WPI: 9
Yardage: 50 gms = 50 meters

Materials needed:
Hook size: J10/ 6 mm
Amount of yarn needed ranges from 49 grams/ 1.71 oz/ 49 meters/ 54 yds for smallest size to 122 grams/ 4.27 oz / 122 meters/ 133 yds for largest size.
Tapestry needle, a pair of scissors, stitch marker and optional filler for berries.
Please note that I have used a yarn that is on heavier side. If you use wool/ blended wool, the amount required is likely to be less. The amount of yarn needed will be less if you choose to make a headband that tapers at the nape (Instructions in the pattern).

To make leaves and berries for infant sizes, use weight 2 yarn, for child sizes, use weight 3 yarn. For adult sizes, you can use weight 3, 4 or 5 yarn. Also, I have made slightly large leaves. For smaller leaves, use yarn of lesser weight.

Use any colours if making for non- christmas times and you can also make it without leaves.

Thank you so much for visiting my store.

Have a happy day!

Best,
